Should I apply for financial aid even if I am not sure I will qualify for it?

<p>Also, do you have to fill out everything in the CSS profile? My parents are unsure about some questions.... :-S I am just very confused about the whole process....</p>

<p>If you fill out the CSS Profile, yes, you need to fill out the whole thing. If you have specific questions, make a new thread called “CSS Profile specific questions” or something similar.</p>

<p>Should you apply? Well, the most generous colleges in America give some level of help to families with up to $200k/year income, even with just one kid in college. It would help to know some of the schools where you are applying.</p>

<p>If you’re really not sure that you’ll qualify for financial aid, than that’s a great reason to apply.</p>
