<p>As conversations at work have switched from admissions to FAFSA and how to actual pay for college many topics have been tossed around. I told my co-workers I would ask the opinions of the experts on CC. SO here goes:</p>
<li><p>How close was the FAFSA EFC to the PROFILE EFC?</p></li>
<li><p>Do you even get to know the EFC from the PROFILE?</p></li>
<li><p>How many are tagged for verification?</p></li>
<li><p>What are the triggers for being verified?</p></li>
<li><p>If w-2’s and tax returns have already been submitted what else is asked for in the verification process?</p></li>
<li><p>What formula do colleges prefer for determining market value of your house? Property tax assessments? Recent sales in neighborhood?</p></li>
<li><p>If you make an obvious calculation error or put something on the “line” below, if you will, will the school call and tell you?</p></li>
<li><p>In general do the colleges accept the postmarked/submitted deadline as being on time or when it is actually processed?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>It’s very interesting the wide range of feelings on this subject. </p>
