<p>My son recieved a free application to a college he was considering. </p>

<p>I presume we are still paying to send ACT/SAT's? </p>

<p>Yes</p>

<p>If the college requires more than the FAFSA to determine aid, you may need to pay for the CSS Profile too.</p>

<p>That sounds right. The fee to send scores and the CSS Profile is levied by the CollegeBoard and not the college. However, I think there are fee waivers involved for that too based on some other factors (financial need?) but it would be a separate process from the one that you used to get a free application to a specific college or group of colleges.</p>
