I have court ordered legal guardianship of my grandson. He was able to fill out the CSSProfile as an independent student. I am now getting a request from a college for additional information. They want financial information but it says “custodial parent”. When I called the college board about this they told me a custodial parent and legal guardianship are the same. From what I understand this is not correct. Do I have to provide my financial information as a guardian?
