I guess I’m missing. If you are doing it for the private school, since you can submit ten at once why not just send into the public?
My daughter applied to 21 and we submitted to all 21.
Our EFC was more than any school’s C OF a.
Some schools reward u. Chicago waived the app fee if you apply. Others have merit conditioned on FAFSA even though that sounds contrary.
But if you’ve done it for one submit to all. Completing it is 99.9%. Adding a school to the list is .1% of the work.
