    FAFSA does more than that, it feeds your financials to the schools you apply to through it.

    This is presented as “convenience”, you submit your info once and apply to a bunch of schools.

      Isn’t that the Common App, not FAFSA?

      FAFSA might make your info available to colleges when you apply, but it’s not related to applying in and of itself.

        Couldn’t say at this point, too much water under that particular bridge at this point. I do recall each school specifically referencing the FAFSA application.
