Always fill out the FAFSA! It does not take very long and it is better to have filled it out in case it is needed for merit aid rather than to miss out on aid because you didn’t take time to fill it out. We don’t qualify for need-based aid but we get the FAFSA turned in the first day every year (reason being some pools of funds are limited and doled out on a first-come, first - serve basis – so better to have it done to be considered asap than to find out all the funds have been given out by the time you turn in your FAFSA).
