<p>My dad was promoted only 3 years ago. Before that, his annual income was much lower. Should I explain this during financial aid application?</p>
<p>…
bump bump…
anyone has any idea?</p>
<p>you can mention it, but I’ll be honest, colleges probably won’t care too much. I made alot less 4-5 years ago and it made no difference.</p>
<p>Your financial aid application will consider only the previous year’s income information. Some schools will ask for two previous year’s of tax returns…but three years ago? As stated, you can mention it but it probably won’t have an impact on need based financial aid awards.</p>
<p>i see. thank you!</p>
