U.S. Department of Education regulations do not allow families to report parent enrollment in college when completing the FAFSA.
However, the regulations state that institutions may consider adjusting this information through the professional judgment (or special
circumstance) process.
If a parent meets the conditions below, the University of Akron will consider adjusting the student's FAFSA. Adjusting for full-time
parent enrollment often lowers students' Expected Family Contribution (EFC) and increases financial need but does not always result
in increased need-based assistance.
