Should I Apply to Schools I can't Afford?

We immigrated to America and still have money in our original country’s bank accounts as well as a home there. I don’t know if this is reported on the IRS tax forms, but none of the college’s net price calculators ask for it, so I’m not sure if FAFSA itself will ask.

I’m not sure what you mean here. When the Net Price Calculators and FAFSA ask about assets/savings, they don’t just mean in the US. They mean anywhere…even if on the moon or buried in your sandbox.

Are you saying that the Net Price Calculators didn’t ask any questions about savings/assets?
