<p>I have a summer job and am expecting around 2500. Potentially I may get a job in college that will earn me 1000 max fall semester. I know the FAFSA allows for a $3800 allowance before the earnings affect aid (and after that it's 50%). If my school is a CSS profile school, is the allowance still $3800 or is that a question that is school-specific?</p>
