Please Help: Worried Senior

<p>Most schools use the CSS model for initial offers, later to be confirmed and finalized with the FAFSA and tax returns. Most schools also require the non custodial parent to provide information. How they resolve disputes when someone won’t turn over tax documents or provide adequate information (which is despicable) for a FAFSA report is a matter for individual schools to resolve. </p>

<p>Strange wants to leave California. I get that. So let’s help him/her with some suggestions. </p>

<p>It appears Strange is a Roman Catholic (a guess), so I would suggest he/she look at the websites for all 28 Jesuit colleges (<a href=“http://www.ajcunet.edu/[/url]”>http://www.ajcunet.edu/&lt;/a&gt;), toss in Providence, Siena, Villanova, U Portland and perhaps U Dallas for good measure. </p>

<p>For financial reasons Strange should look closely at schools where he/she is in the 75th percentile of their class profiles at each college, or higher, to maximize scholarship and other financial aid offers.</p>
