I thought you cant attend college without without completing FASFA. I filled it out for my kids. They got 80k in free money for college. I’m not talking loans.
They were telling parents you have to come to a seminar on college loan applications.
FASFA is worse than income taxes.
They want to know everything about your finances, everything.
They can attend but they can’t get scholarships or loans without it. One of my daughters is in the same boat as yours. She has a massive scholarship so we have to fill it out every year. Without it she couldn’t have attended her school. With it she’s pays less than a community college would need and the opportunities are better.
