Oh, yeah. That's precisely what I am doing.
1) Like you said, you've applied for federal loans before, so you know of the requirement. I have applied, or tried to, for them now as well, so now I also am aware. Your point being what exactly, aside from trying to be an ass?
2) I never saw that brochure nor that site. The college's online student account system included a direct link to the FAFSA application, which is what I was told to fill up and file.
If I had Google'd for "financial aid selective service", perhaps that brochure would have shown up. Gee, why didn't I do that? Oh right, I'd never even heard the phrase "selective service". And if I had read that, I would have assumed that I do not have to register, since I'm 30 years old. Since that is what it says. And yet, it doesn't matter what age you are. You have to register or seek exemption anyway.
Please, if you have nothing to contribute, don't bother replying. I am not whining about having to do this. I'd have gladly done it the day I landed in the country if that had been possible.
