CSS NCP profile for schools that don't require it like Vanderbilt

Does your non-custodial wealthier parent pay support for you? As noted, the custodial parent is now the parent who provides the majority of your support. If 50/50, I believe the parent with the higher income wins. @kelsmom

Are you sure the parent where you would be paying less actually IS your custodial parent now…with the new guidelines?

Schools will request non-custodial parent info if they feel it will provide a more complete picture of your parent finances in terms of supporting college.

Also…in March, you wrote this:

I have no idea who my NCP is and have never had contact with him.

So…why is there a concern now about the NCP form? Did you apply for a NCP waiver? If your father is not on your birth certificate and you have never had contact with him, I’m having trouble understanding your need to complete a NCP Profile.
