Question about legal name on FAFSA and CSS

<p>I have a name that is different on my alien registration card and social security card than the name on my high school transcript, I have not legally changed my name yet, so should I put my legal name on the FAFSA and CSS profiles, which I think is the most logival thing to do and hope colleges can match my profile through my social security number?</p>

<p>put down "aka" [name] also known as [name]</p>

<p>I'd use what is on your ARC/SS. attach an explanation to your transcript-or have your school attach note to transcript. </p>

<p>see other opinions.</p>
