Change the way colleges look at a family's financials. FASFA only looks at the tax return but doesn't consider debt.

It isn't right that FASFA only looks at a families income tax return from the previous year and not also the output of income throughout the year when determining how much of a loan is granted for college. We only qualified for a $5500 loan per year for our daughters college however I cannot afford the remaining $10k-$15k a year that it will cost. At this point I don't know where we are supposed to come up with the rest. It would be an injustice to forsake a good education for her because "on paper" it looks like we make too much money. We are trying to recover from a poor economy and having been unemployed for nearly two years. All the talk over unemployment but nobody addresses the road to recovery for people who have gone back to work.
