Yale Fee Waiver Help?

<p>Hello all! </p>

<p>So, I was working on my Yale Supplement, and saw their request for financial information if I intend to apply for a fee waiver. Do I need to fill this out even if I am using a College Board fee waiver? </p>

<p>Also, I don't live with my mother at the moment, but I understand that I still must use her information on the FAFSA and CSS profiles when applying for financial aid--does this still apply for this Fee Waiver request as well? (she also hasn't worked in ten years and hasn't filed taxes in a long time). Or, since I live with my grandparents, would I have to use their information? (Either way, I fall in the less than $60,000 range, considerably more so with my mother than with my grandparents, but still...) </p>

<p>Any help you all can give me is greatly appreciated! Thank you for your time!</p>

<p>Probably a question best and most succinctly answered by a call to Yale Fin Aid.</p>

<p>I would save the cb fee waiver and fill theirs out. Just explain yourself in the document. If they reject your request, send one. I wouldn’t want to use up a cb one without trying for that one at least.
I got accepted for the Yale Fee Waiver and fall under the 60,000 cap as well. They’re more generous with fee waivers than the UC system, which rejected me for one :frowning:
Just try, you never know what you’d get.</p>
