Okay, that's fine. Now, let's talk about federal student aid. Is this something I have to do every year, not just the first year when I apply?
Yes, you have to meet basic eligibility criteria throughout the time you are receiving aid
Now about the situations that could affect my eligibility for aid, what if I am a student whose father died as a supervisor in Iraq or Afghanistan?
The specific situation of having a parent killed in Iraq or Afghanistan could affect your eligibility for aid.
