School deadlines & Unsub Stafford Loans

Paying for College
1

<p>Hi, thanks in advance for your expertise and advice.</p>

<p>We will file FAFSA only to qualify for unsubsidized Stafford Loans for both D's (one is a freshman in college, one a high school senior). My questions are:</p>

<p>For D #2 (senior in high school) do we need to meet each of the school's deadlines for financial aid that she has applied to if we know all that we will receive is Unsub Stafford loans?</p>

<p>If the school also requires CSS profile, is that necessary to receive the unsub Stafford Loan?</p>

<p>How do the schools, in general, process the finaid application? i.e, if we don't qualify for need based aid (which we don't) will a school that requires the profile not even process the application if we don't file the profile and prevent us from obtaining the unsub Stafford loan?</p>

<p>Thanks again.</p>
