Can I receive financial aid from 2 colleges?
Note: Generally, you are not eligible to receive federal student aid from two different schools when you are attending two different schools at the same time.
Do you get the same amount of financial aid for each school?
Because your financial aid package is created for you and is based on the cost of attending a particular school, your aid amounts will vary from school to school.
Can u be enrolled in two colleges at once?
Yes, enrolling in two community colleges at the same time is doable. “Dual enrollment” is a term used to describe this situation. Dual enrollment refers to high school students who are also enrolled in college classes, but it may also apply to college students who are enrolled in two colleges at the same time.
What is the maximum amount of money fafsa gives?
You may not receive Federal Pell Grant funds from more than one school at a time. Please note that you can receive the Federal Pell Grant for no more than 12 terms or the equivalent (roughly six years). You’ll receive a notice if you’re getting close to your limit.
Can you go to Harvard and MIT at the same time?
As a full-time MIT student, you may cross-register for classes at Harvard University, Wellesley College, and Massachusetts College of Art and Design (MassArt). Each school has its own cross-registration rules and you should review them to learn if you are eligible.

Will adding schools to my FAFSA affect my financial aid?
No – adding schools to your FAFSA won’t have any impact on your financial aid package. Additionally, the schools who receive your FAFSA will not be able to see the other schools that received it. You can send your FAFSA results to as many schools as you’d like without any impact on your financial aid.
Can I apply for financial aid for more than one college?
Absolutely not! You can apply for financial aid at any number of colleges and universities once you receive your Student Aid Report (SAR) and submit your FAFSA for your initial schools. Keep on reading to learn about how to add more schools to the FAFSA!
How do I change my college on the FAFSA list?
Any new college on the list will now process your aid request and send you their offered aid package. To change your FAFSA over the phone, you will need your Data Release Number (DRN), which you will be able to find either on your Student Aid Report or on your online FAFSA account.
How do I transfer my FAFSA from one college to another?
To send your FAFSA information to the new college, list it in one of the ten slots. If all ten slots are filled, replace one of them with the new college. It will take a week or two for the new college to receive the data from your FAFSA.
