Hey guys,
The school I may goto wants me to fill out the FAFSA by March 2nd, which is supposedly the priority date (what is that??).
What should I do if I'm still waiting for possible interviews? If I list other schools, does the school I've already been accepted to get to see the list?
 
I'm not sure if they get to see the list, but I doubt it. Even if they do get to see it, I'm suspecting that most schools expect to see other names on the list. Nothing's final until May 15th, so they understand that you probably have some more applications out there that you are waiting on...
 
Most of the schools I've looked at want the FAFSA by March 1st or so. Just get it done and submit it to them. Usually there is no problem if you get it to them a bit later, it just means it will take longer to see your financial aid package. I can't imagine other schools could see where else you submitted.
 
when you fill out fafsa you have 10 schools you can fill in. just fill in the schools you have been acpted to and the ones you you are wait listed and any other hopeful schools to fill in the 10 spots asap. so when fin aid is sent you will receive it. So when you get off the school for wait list you will get the fin aid even if it is June. or you may get into your wait list school with no fin aid. If you get rejected from a hopeful school don't return the fin aid.... better to be safe then sorry.
