Hi, hearbr8cker124. I looked back at some of your other posts to better understand your situation, and I realized you are only a junior.

I hope things work out for you next year. For the purposes of financial at Wellesley or at any other college including U of Washington, it would be much better if you were living with your mom during college and if she were claiming you as a dependent on her tax returns. This would give more weight to your request for a lot of aid, and you could explain your dad’s unwillingness to help in a separate letter to the financial aid office sent at the same time you filed the CSS Profile and before you do the FAFSA, which doesn’t come out until January.
