<p>Alright, thanks mom2collegekids. Yes I did misunderstand FAFSA, in that case. </p>
<p>I will get back to you guys on how much they can contribute - I’m meeting with my parents to talk about that tonight. My mom says maybe 10K a year is what they can contribute, with the first year fully covered due to savings plans. But she has to consult my father. If my mom gets a job that number will go up. I’ve tried to confront them on finances several times but they keep avoiding it and I get no clear number. The number seems grim as it stands now. </p>
<p>I don’t think I’m low income but our income only comes from my father. He makes about 80-90K a year.</p>
