Financial Aid Difficulties for Middle Class Students

Also, is there any option for working directly with an admissions office to adjust financial aid based on changes in income? (My dad recently has recently lost his job and took a salary cut after looking for work for months. My mom had to significantly reduce her working hours due to partial disability within the past five years).

Yes, you would need to contact the Financial aid offices, where you plan to apply, and ask them about your scenario. You can also call the FAFSA offices directly and ask about adjusting your information.
