The wrong question was asked earlier. The questions isn’t whether your parents can or cannot pay…the question is…are they LOW INCOME? and also…do you have a non-custodial parent? Do your parents own a business or take business deductions.
Simply being “unable to pay” means nothing to schools. The actual financial picture (income/assets) is what matters.
Are you sure that your safeties are safeties? Those schools may give you large merit, but if room, board, books, fees, etc aren’t covered, how will those get paid?
Are you a likely NMF?
