Reluctant/Scared Future Nursing Student? Need advice.

Nursing Students General Students

My intended nursing school that I fill be applying to this fall puts an emphasis on verifying everything on a fafsa application for all students. And this makes me very nervous because I know there are some things that I cannot verify for financial aid which puts me in a bind. Though, granted I am selective for verification all the time for every school year, but I'm worried that this won't be the same for the nursing school.

For example, I am a dependent therefore I have to use my parents information. But my mom makes 100,000 a year as a single parent and she currently supports 7 people, including herself. So I use my father information (which he signs off on) because he doesn't have an income from being on disability for about 6-8 years now. But I probably won't be able to prove I have been living with him all this time...

So the question is should I find another nursing school and not waste my time on the one I'm trying to currently apply to? It's a BSN program.

Thanks in advance.
