Does applying for financial aid hurt you?

At most schools there’s no connection. The FA department takes the time to figure aid amount only for those who are admitted, and the applicants wanted the most are admitted first. When the FA budget is depleted, applicants asking for aid are not admitted.

This is not accurate. It also makes no sense.

Correct, only at schools that meet need.
