<p>Is it correct to assume that schools which use the PROFILE Noncustodial form (in my case, Michigan) will combine the custodial and noncustodial assets/income information to come to their own EFC calculation? Is there any weighting or are both parents resources treated equally?</p>
<p>This varies by school. No way to know exactly what YOUR schools will do. Profile formulas vary from school to school.</p>
<p>However, in the end, the school will compute your need and a family contribution. They don’t care who pays it (custodial or non-custodial parents)…as long as it gets paid.</p>
