FAFSA SAR Question

<p>Once you get your SAR and EFC back, does FAFSA send colleges the report? It says they do electronically, but how do they do this, do they send the school an email or something? or does it give them a list of student's names where the school can look up who listed them?</p>

<p>another question on this subject: on the website it says that it only sends the FAFSA to 6 schools. Additional schools may also be sent the SAR. Since this is different from the FAFSA, will it also be accepted? (Schools say they want FAFSA, however, the website says it's ok to send this (SAR)).</p>

<p>While the fafsa sends to 6 schools once the SAR has been sent, you can go on line make corrections and change/ add anothe 6 schools. While most schools now prefer to have this information on line, it is always wise to have a hard copy of your SAR in case you do need to mail them in.</p>
