Marrying a foreign national while an MD student

I am currently a rising American MS2 planning on marrying a foreign national in her home country. She will remain in her home country for about a year while we wait for the spouse visa to get processed and hopefully approved.

I am wondering to what degree this will affect my financial aid and where I can go to get some more information. I've already filled out this year's FAFSA and received my 2015-2016 award statements, and I'm over 25.

it won't affect your financial aid, unless you relinquish US citizenship (then you won't be eligible for federal aid).
