CSS PROFILE for the Non-Custodial Parent (if applicable)

If your parents do not live together, each parent must complete a separate 2020-21 CSS Profile.  It is highly recommended that the student and the “custodial” parent start the CSS Profile application before the “non-custodial” parent starts theirs. If either or both parent is remarried, that parent’s current spouse’s information would also be provided on the CSS Profile.
