FAFSA Question: More Than 6 Schools?

Paying for College
1

<p>Can anyone with experience enlighten me re the 6-school limit on the FAFSA application? My twins are applying to 8 schools apiece. This morning we filed the FAFSA for 6 of their schools. When and how do we file for the remaining 2 schools? The instructions on the FAFSA site say that you have to wait until you receive the Student Aid Report (SAR) and then file a "correction" (delete the first 6 schools, add the remaining 2 schools). Again, would love to hear more about this from anyone with experience applying to 6+ schools. BTW, how long does it take to receive the SAR?</p>

<p>If you are filing the FAFSA on-line, you file first using 6 schools per student, Print out copies for your records (in the event that something happens. </p>

<p>The FAFSA is processed in approximately 3 days if you do it on-line (much longert snail mail). After it has been process, go to the section that says make corrections, then list the other schools.</p>
