Quick FAFSA Question

On my common app,I did not list my middle name.
When I apply for FAFSA,would I need to include my middle name since it’s on my birth certificate?
Would there be a problem if I don’t list my middle name?
Thank you!

I don’t think so. Could you change the common app?

My daughter’s name is screwed up all the time, and it doesn’t seem to matter. She has two first names, but sometimes the schools or other organizations list just one first name and move the other to the middle name, but she HAS a middle name, so the initial is wrong. This caused a big problem with the school because they started two files for her and that made matching info from the high school, NCAA, scholarship awards difficult FOR THEM. WE were always consistent. WE always list her name as the double first name, the middle name (or initial), last name. WE always have to straighten it out.

Then, while doing that, we correct the spelling of our last name. :slight_smile: (which we also always spell correctly).

You don’t need to include your middle name.

Thank you!!
