This year I received a packet from the College Board with 8 fee application waivers inside. I thought this was weird, because I do not qualify for free or reduced lunch, nor have I received SAT Waivers in the past from them. This complicates things, because on the Common App the only way I could see myself qualifying for a fee application is through checking the box about receiving an SAT waiver in the past, which is untrue.
For context; my family of 3 has an income of roughly 35k a year, so I’m not sure if I qualify based on need or not.
Also, I have never indicated in the past that my family was in need of waivers via my college board account.
I’m pretty sure you got the free waivers because of your family income according to the USDA Food and Nutrition Service. For a family of 3 it’s around 37,000.
