Match Me: Helping a Homeless/Independent MD Student. 3.0 GPA, 1480 PSAT, Creative + High Need

Most net price calculators do ask questions aimed at determining whether the student is independent for financial aid purposes. If so, then they do not ask for parental finances if the student is independent (but note that not all colleges follow the FAFSA rules).

It is true that some colleges that require non custodial parent information do not make that clear in their net price calculators.
