I’m looking way too far ahead here (I’m a senior in HS), but how does financial aid work in grad school? Essentially the same as undergrad (FAFSA, etc.)? I realize there are fellowships and funding sources like that, but what about need-based? Would it be at all helpful if I were to have a cash/savings/investment balance of near 0 upon entry into grad school (or rather filling out the FAFSA)?
