独立的学生
什么是独立学生?
独立学生符合特定的法律要求,有资格获得更多的联邦经济援助来支付大学费用。
Among many factors, independent students do not have access to their guardian’s financial resources. As a result, an independent student only needs to report their financial information (or their spouses, if married) on their Free 应用程序 for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) — not their guardians’ income and finances.
你需要具备什么条件才能成为一名独立学生?
The Department of Education provides FAFSA applicants with 列出十个问题 to better help them determine their independent vs dependent status.
一般来说,如果学生对以下条件中的一个回答“是”,则被认为是独立的:
- 已婚或分居(未离婚)
- 这个学生正在攻读研究生学位
- 该学生是现役军人或退伍军人
- 该学生被寄养,在13岁时失去双亲,或被法院监护
- 该学生在法律上是独立的
- 该学生无家可归或被认可的官员认为有无家可归的危险
- 该学生负责抚养一名从该学生那里获得一半以上生活费的受抚养人
- 该学生在获奖年度的1月1日前年满24岁
独立学生必须提供证明其独立身份的额外文件。
如果你是一名受抚养学生,但你的资格改变了怎么办?
如果学生认为他们的身份在申请FAFSA后发生了变化,财政援助官员必须要求一份抚养审查表。
Once the form is complete, dependency overrides may allow financial aid officers to revisit a student’s circumstances and FAFSA status to possibly provide them independent status, even if they don’t meet the federal guidelines. 然后,一个委员会或经济援助办公室会审查这些表格。
依赖覆盖是罕见的,并且是在逐个案例,逐个学校的基础上,并且通常用于不寻常的情况,例如:
- 被父母遗弃
- 防止滥用法庭保护
- 父母双方的监禁、收容或住院
- 或者法定监护人下落不明
