need help with CSS profile

[ChenChenChen]

<p>Hey guys! Can anyone explain what this means:</p>

<p>"WHAT does the PROFILE cost? The fee for the initial application and one college or program report is $25. Additional reports are $16."</p>

<p>does it mean the PROFILE to the first college will cost $25 than $16 for the rest?</p>

<p>This is probably a better way to say it:

How Much Does It Cost?</p>

<p>You are charged an application fee of $9, plus $16 for each college or scholarship program to which you want information sent. A limited number of fee waivers are granted automatically to first-year, first-time citizen — or eligible non-citizen applicants — from low-income families, based on the financial information provided on the PROFILE.

<p>So, yes. $25 for the first one, $16 for all others.</p>
