I think this topic has popped up every now and then, but I thought we needed another thread on the subject.
We have a less than a year to go before we start filling out financial aid forms for college. Our income in 2009 will less than half of what it was in 2007.
I'm wondering if there are specific strategies that might be helpful to snag more financial aid. My spouse is working basically full-time, so in my retirement, we should look like a typical family barely making ends meet with one working parent along with a stay-at-home-parent. At least that's the plan.
I believe TromboneAl got more financial aid for his daughter after he retired. How did any of you other early retirees make out with the college financial aid office? Any tips, ideas or comments that you can pass on? Basically, what can we expect? Thanks!
