Filing <strong>the</strong> FAFSA 56<br />
If <strong>the</strong> student does not have a special circumstance, but is unable to provide parental information,<br />
FAFSA on <strong>the</strong> Web (FOTW) will allow <strong>the</strong> student to complete <strong>the</strong> form without parental information<br />
if <strong>the</strong> student selects <strong>the</strong> second option. However, a dependent student who does not provide parental<br />
information will not qualify for federal student aid. (The student might still be eligible for state aid or<br />
financial aid from <strong>the</strong> school.)<br />
If <strong>the</strong> student does not qualify for a dependency override but is unable to provide parental information<br />
because <strong>the</strong> student’s parents refuse to complete <strong>the</strong> form and have cut off all financial support, <strong>the</strong><br />
college’s financial aid administrator can allow <strong>the</strong> student to borrow from <strong>the</strong> unsubsidized Federal<br />
Stafford loan program. Such a student, however, is not eligible for o<strong>the</strong>r forms of federal student aid,<br />
such as <strong>the</strong> Federal Pell Grant, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG), Federal<br />
Perkins Loan, subsidized Federal Stafford Loan and Federal Work-Study.
