I’m sure all of who applied for FA understand how stressful this part of the application process is. I am applying to more than 10 schools and intend to apply for financial aid at all of them, so I cannot send the FAFSA directly from the website to those schools because the 10 slots have already been filled. How do I add the remaining colleges to the FAFSA? If schools have confirmed they got my FAFSA can I take them off the list and replace them with a different college? (i assume they downloaded the file or something) If I already got accepted to a few of the schools can I take those off the list on the FAFSA (they haven’t gotten back to me yet with financial aid)? Please help as some financial aid deadlines are rapidly approaching and I’m genuinely very confused.
You have to wait till the FAFSA is processed. It usually takes about 3 days. You can then remove those schools and add the additional ones.
Thank you so much! Very helpful
So if a school says they got my fafsa via the portal Im safe to remove them and add another school
@bleedorangebaby It’s safe to remove them once your FAFSA is processed and you receive the confirmation saying that they were sent to the colleges you listed.
