Guys, I don’t understand what the big deal is. Why would it hurt for the college to have a more accurate picture of this family’s situation? At worst, they will be in the same position they would be if they haven’t communicated. In other words: no downside!

Clearly this school is very focused on getting kids to attend. I really don’t understand thinking merit or need is set in stone. People – it is not!! There is often wiggle room (not always of course). So there is big upside in communication for this family.
