<p>Hey, I got a q about the fafsa. My sister will be starting college next year while I'm currently in college. I was wondering when filling out the fafsa, do I fill out a renewal fafsa while she fills out a new one, or is there a different process?</p>
<p>Right- renewal for you, new FAFSA for her.</p>
<p>You should find that the family total EFC will remain about the same (if parental income and assets are similar to last year), but it will be split between you and your sister. Could be a good deal, finance-wise, to have both of you in school at the same time.</p>
<p>It will definitely help you. We have 3 kids in college this year and it made a huge difference in our EFC.</p>
