Hello, all!
I am planning on getting married in March(ish). I will hopefully be accepted in a program for c/o2027, and I know I will need to update the school on my marital status when that occurs. If I don’t get accepted, of course I will update my marital status on next years VMCAS application and won’t need to worry about reaching out to any individual school about it.
I have these questions;
1.) Will being married effect my financial aid? I.e will I still qualify for full loans for COA regardless of joint income? My future spouse is NOT a U.S. citizen, does that change things?
2.) If I complete my FAFSA right now, my marital status will be single, but by the time I receive aid in the fall…I hope to be married. How do I tell/update FAFSA about my marital status after submitting it?
