Yes, you should always apply for financial aid. Even if you are ineligible, you should complete the FAFSA because many schools use this information to award non-federal aid, such as scholarships. Be sure to ask each school what additional forms you may need to complete. Also, keep in mind that the later you apply, the less institutional funding you may receive as these amounts are set beforehand.
