Forced to live Off Campus

Hello. I’m currently a freshman at Virginia Tech and recently received my housing lottery number. Out of 1745 numbers for males, I got 1701. I emailed the housing and unfortunately, they told me that it was near impossible for me to get a housing contract on campus. I am paying most of my tuition off with scholarships/grants/loans.

So my question is, once Virginia Tech gets my FAFSA information and find out I am living off campus, will they give me less financial aid? Will they consider that I was forced to live off campus and provide financial aid for that? Or will they disregard it?

Thank you.
