Merit scholarship question

If you are not eligible for financial aid but receive a merit scholarship, do you have to complete the FAFSA and CSS profile every year anyway? Those forms are such royal pains that I’d love to skip them if not required. Thank goodness older kid’s school did not require them.

The best place to ask is Oberlin’s financial aid office. FWIW, my kid had a merit award at Oberlin, it was renewed annually, and we never filled out those forms.

Okay. I didn’t think we’d have to do that but was curious. Thanks!
