Here in TX we have TAFSA but you don't receive aid until everyone else receives theirs from FAFSA. My friend believed that he would qualify for federal financial aid. I tried to explain, gave up and told him to just go ask the school's financial aid office. Yea I heard private colleges give a lot more! Too bad I want to go to a public school since their business school is better. :/
