Potential SUNY student, need help with Excelsior, picking a college without too much debt

No one is saying that the increases are random.

For 2019-20 school year, the amount is increasing to $125. I’m not saying that it will increase again for the 2021-22 school year, but maybe it will.

I’m still waiting for a firm answer about whether 401k annual contributions are added back into AGI or not.

Do they simply take AGI from FAFSA so “prior prior” is being used?
