Financial Aid Question: A certain application is asking me to list "unusual expenses..."?

Question

I expect to incur during this coming school year. This school is in a different state so should I list down moving expenses, rent etc or is that already understood and I just have to put something really unusual? The application gives "child care" as an example. What would you put in yours?

Answer 1

Typically there are specific catagories for tuition, room and board - look to see if rent fits into any of those.  Also, some applications ask for travel, books and a general "personal" catagory.  If it isn't clear where to put everything, then just list the expenses and the cooresponding $ amount.  Good luck

Answer 2

Put any expense you expect to incur. Do not take anything for granted.

Answer 3

High PAID family (you or your parents, siblings) medical expenses.

Tuition and fees (say your baby brother goes to a private middle school, or college and your parents still support him even though hes 30, or perhaps you have a parent in college).

NOTE: you would only list these things about parents expenses if your folks are on your fafsa.

If you have a disability and bought any unusual items, wheelchair, auditory or visual adulatory products like a talking calculator or something.

Answer 4

I would list moving and everything like you said.
