<p>Actually…no. Princeton doesn’t use the Profile, but their school based form does ask for non-custodial parent information…and custodial parent info…very similar info to the Profile…but they use their own form. Princeton does have some different policies on how they treat step parent income, or non-custodial parent income…but that is a whole other story.</p>
<p>U of Chicago is trying to streamline their need based financial aid process. They are using the FAFSA only to gather information. Then they supplement that with a short form for additional information. Their goal is to offer easier access to need based aid than the complex Profile/non-custodial parent Profile process. This is the first year of this new initiative.</p>
