<p>I would submit the requested documents if I were you. As a private school, USC does not have to use the EFC determined by the FAFSA if they choose not to. They may have their own criteria for financial aid independent from what any federal formula would indicate. Therefore, what’s there to lose if you just submit the documents anyway? There are probably other students at USC with an EFC like yours who still get financial aid. Your citizenship documentation and selective service isn’t that big of a deal to submit, I wouldn’t think.</p>
