I'm planning on being financially independent for the year before I apply to med school, and I'll have to pay for my own med school (unless I go to my state school, in which case my dad has offered to pay). Do you know if I have to list my dad's income on financial forms and if so, will my aid be awarded (or not) based on that? Some ppl said they thought that might happen, but it just doesn't seem fair if I'm paying for my own med school w/o parental support anyway.
I know it seems early to be asking financial aid q's before I've even applied, but if I have less of a chance of getting aid, then I need to apply to more schools where I have a better chance of getting a scholarship.
