I do not believe that the FAFSA considers tuition for students other than those enrolled in college. It also doesn't include other "choices" in providing educational opportunities as I would guess that those are viewed as family choices. For example, the year DS was applying for finaid as a freshman, the previous year, we had expended well over $15,000 in music related expenses (summer program, new instrument, youth ensemble, private lessons on two instruments). In retrospect, we should have put that under "other considerations" or whatever it's called on the Profile...but the reality was that if we were able to pay that $15,000 for something optional, it was not going to help us with finaid. Of course, for DS...these were not optional expenses....he's a music major.
