Majesa, The Profile allows you to put in information about private school expenses. The posters here indicated (and I suspected the same) that they have no way of knowing whether it was considered or not. Remember, the Profile is a form that collects financial information from families so that the schools can use that information for awarding institutional aid. From descriptions here and elsewhere, it is clear that the schools do NOT use this information in the same ways (awards vary quite a bit...if they were using the awards the same way, full need schools would have the same awards). Everyone who has posted her about private school expenses has indicated that they didn't seem to think there was a significant increase in their financial aid. BUT that doesn't mean the OP shouldn't indicated this on the form.
