<p>My mother makes right above the maximum for free/reduced lunch and therefore an automatic NACAC fee waiver. However, on the application a counselor can explain the circumstances as to why I can't pay the application fees.</p>
<p>My question is, do you think this is enough for me to be approved for a waiver?:</p>
<p>Right after this school year started, my mother was transferred for work so I moved in with my grandparents. Although my mom is still technically responsible for me, I pay for everything I need. Up until September, I had a steady part time job, so providing for myself was not a problem. However, now that I don’t work, I’m using my (slowly depleting) savings for necessities. Because of this, paying for college application fees would present a hardship.</p>
