does anybody know how to add more than the 6 schools they give you space for in the fasfa app for medschools?

If you have more schools to apply to than the amount of spaces on the FAFSA, you fill it out with the first six (is it nine this year? It was six last year.) Then after you get confirmation, you "correct" your FAFSA, by changing the schools to the next bunch of nine, and if you are like I was, you wait for confirmation and correct it again.
If you file online, it takes only a day or two to get confirmation and then change the schools. If you read the instructions, this is what they tell you to do, and they don't actually remove the schools you initially listed. So all the schools will get your info.
Go to the FAFSA Corrections on the Web site and add more schools by submitting a correction to his or her FAFSA information. The student needs his or her PIN for this option. If the student makes further corrections after adding the new schools, the schools the student entered on the original FAFSA will not receive these corrections. However, the student can call the Federal Student Aid Information Center to make changes to school information using his or her Data Release Number (DRN).
