My dad won't let me grow up!

<p>

<p>Schools do not care about that at all. The ones who want both parent’s financial information STILL want your mom’s input and expect her to contribute to your education. Now, that is not all colleges… you can usually tell by carefully reading the financial aid website at each college. Those that ask for the CSS profile or say they have a non-custodial parent form are the ones that will want this.</p>

<p>I am having trouble telling what you want from your posts… are you just looking to vent about clothes, driving, etc? Or do you want help in figuring out your college search and how to get your dad on board with it? You don’t seem to be responding to the repeated suggestions about running the net price calculator for the colleges you might be interested in… Mommusic is right about learning more about financial aid, choosing several colleges to discuss with your dad, and running the calculators with his help. He may veto some due to cost, safety concerns, etc. (as many of us parents on College Confidential have done in the past!)… that is why you should research and come up with a list of 5 or 6 to discuss with him.</p>
