FAFSA effect of admission decision?

It may be dated or incorrect, as it also doesn’t include schools like Haverford, which went need-aware this year (listed as need blind) and Wesleyan, which I haven’t found if the protests against its need aware move have had effect:

Actually, the very vast majority of colleges are need BLIND! Not need aware.

Piling on. The VAST, VAST majority of schools do not care at all about your need because they do not claim or pretend to meet your need. They are need-blind.

There is a difference between need-blind and need-blind AND meets full needs.

University of Michigan is need blind.

The vast majority of state schools, where the vast majority of US college students study, is need blind.

Closing thread because OP has multiple threads going on and would be better served by having all of her information in one place.
