PhDinPublicHealthHopeful Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Hello all! I have a MPH and did not get any sort of funding/scholarships/etc. I was also working full time and made enough to pay each month towards my degree. Now...totally different situation. I'm a FT teacher and PT community college lecturer. We don't get health insurance, so my income looks slightly inflated (and a large chunk goes to the teacher's pension). When I begin my program, I will not be teaching and will have no income! However, the FAFSA that I will fill out will have to do with 2015's taxes (in which I will have made more money), and even the year after the 2016 year (in which half the year I'll have been teaching). How can someone like me qualify for financial aid if they base it on PAST, no longer relevant income? Help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rising_star Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 It won't matter for grad school since the only thing you'll be awarded via FAFSA are subsidized and unsubsidized Stafford loans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
