<p>*Does your son have a non-custodial parent?</p>
<p>Yes, and he has no spouse yet. His income is low as well and no assets. So, even if we considered his income, the EFC may not change much.*</p>
<p>Will he fill out the NCP paperwork each year? If you’re not sure, you need to find out. A school that requires NCP info won’t process FA if the NCP won’t submit paperwork.</p>
<p>Rice. I don’t know how much they offer, but that was the only college available on the list provide and he chose it as his first choice while filling in the info for NMF.</p>
<p>Rice only gives NMFs $1k per year. </p>
<p>Your son can always change his #1 choice and apply to a school that will give him more merit.</p>
<p>Yes, you can use the 529 towards EFC.</p>
