Hi,
I'll be attending medical school this August and I've got a few questions about financial aid & personal assets.
1.) I'm a non-trad (28) who has been on my own since age 17. Do I include my parents income on the FAFSA form?
2.) Does my current income affect what my financial "need" will be since once school starts, I will no longer have an income from my current vocation?
3.) I've got a few real estate investments that I'm planning on renting out during med school. They should provide a decent net cash flow. Will transferring those properties to another family member maximize my financial aid package since I have substantial equity in those properties?
4.) Does having money in a savings account or stocks typically lower the amount of financial aid you receive?
5.) Any other advice you think might be helpful to me?
Thanks for the help!
