Hi thanks for your reply. I actually I did do a dependency override in the past and I have been listed as a financially independent student. I didn't elaborate about it in the blog post because explaining it would be too complicated to go into. Being listed as financially independent helped at first because I qualified for grants and subsidized/unsubsidized government loans, but now I don't even have grants and for this coming year I only got $104 of subsidized loans to be able to take out. It has been difficult to get in contact with someone that actually understands what is going on with my financial aid.
