Is FAFSA required to get subsidized loans?

I believe @taverngirl said they appealed and Rochester gave them an additional $10,000.

But that wasn’t enough.

That’s why i asked about why? If the family used the IRS DRT when doing the FAFSA, the income would have been inflated IF they had a TSA or IRA rollover and didn’t check a box.

Did income increase? Assets? Something would have needed to change for a drastic cut in need based aid.

If this is merit aid…did the student not meet the GPA criteria for maintaining merit aid?

What was the explanation??
