A. While we cannot react to market conditions immediately, the Office of Financial Aid Services will definitely look at your asset information for the coming school year. Even if you have not filed an application for financial aid in the past, we encourage you to do so for the 2009-2010 school year. Your change in circumstance could mean that your son or daughter may be eligible to receive need-based financial aid for the coming school year.
