Should I apply for financial aid?

OP, since our family isn’t eligible for need-based aid, I called every school on my daughter’s list to ask if she needed to apply for aid freshman year to be eligible in later years if family circumstances changed. Every school on her list said she didn’t have to apply freshman year. You’ll have to ask each school on your list if you would be eligible for institutionally-awarded need-based aid in subsequent years.
