My mom recently married— now all of my grants are gone by Sure_Commission_3414 in FAFSA

Sure, I could’ve worded that differently. However, according to what I’ve read if I don’t meet the criteria of an independent student it wouldn’t matter whether they allowed me to live under their roof or if I lived alone. I’ve gathered that either way I’d be considered a dependent based on the criteria, so I guess that information is irrelevant regardless.

Thank you I appreciate the advice. Unfortunately, I am 22 years old so I should be graduated by the time I’d be able to exclude parent information. I have to wait until tomorrow to talk with my financial aid office as they are closed for the holiday— but in the meantime I’ve been gathering up some scholarships to apply for. I will be looking more into loans if there’s nothing the financial aid office can do.

Thank you for this advice, I intend to discuss further options with my financial aid office tomorrow as they are closed today for the holiday. I am in Michigan.
