I posted this in info in the thread I started earlier, but I think that it is useful information that might get overlooked there:
I called FAFSA and they gave me these links to determine my "Expected Family Contribution" (EFC). This determines if you are elegible for different grants and subsidized vs. unsubsidized loans.
NOTE: If you buy a house, you do not have to report that as part of your assets (i.e. a good place to stash your cash). Once you have reported your cash/checking assets on the form, you cannot change it. Schools have access to your previous year's FAFSA
Here are the links:
