<p>Our EFC is $21,000. Tuition and fees at Rutgers for in-state commuter student is approx $13,000. Is it even worth going through the FAFSA process, in the hopes a grant or scholarship would be available? Daughter just missed being in top 20% of class.</p>
<p>if you want her to have some 'skin in the game by taking out an unsubsidized stafford loan, you need to do a fafsa.</p>
<p>I don’t know if the fafsa is required for consideration for scholarships.</p>
<p>I don’t see any harm in doing the fafsa.</p>
