^ I believe there are some schools will shut you out of aid if you haven’t applied in prior years. So sometimes full-pay applicants will apply (or fill out the FAFSA) if there is any chance their circumstances could change, even if they expect to get denied in the current year.

If you have the money already saved to be full pay for the duration of your student’s education, then that’s great! No one here will judge you for that.
