Is FAFSA required to get subsidized loans?

@thumper1 yes, the FAFSA was filled out for this year. I can have it sent to the colleges that she’s applying to. She is hoping to go somewhere this fall, but she’s not crazy about the choices she has (since most applications had closed) and feels stressed having to make a decision so quickly. She doesn’t want to get it wrong since it’s her second school.

Roch did give us $10K after the appeal, but in the same breath told us we wouldn’t be getting it next year (when we have a son heading to college and their tuition goes up to $82K). Their reason was due to an increase in salary (a bonus actually). It wasn’t that big, trust me. We could swing the tuition (she has some merit) but we can’t justify it. Roch is great school, but she can get a good education elsewhere for substantially less.

One of d’s friends at Roch found out just yesterday that her FA was cut in half. Across the board her friends had cuts though not as drastic.
