Question on Multiple Children in College

Can someone help me with advice on the following?

How does the FAFSA calculation change when you have two children in college in a given academic year - one as an undergrad and the other in grad (law) school? I believe the one in grad school will automatically be treated as an ‘independent’ student by FAFSA. I am specifically interested to know if while filling out the younger (undergard’s) FAFSA, one can enter ‘2’ as the number of children in college, so that the EFC gets divided between the two children.
