<prompt> Human: My girlfriend turns 24 in two months. She wants to start her second bachelors in the fall. As I understand it she can then file her FAFSA without her parents info. Her parents do pretty well but she wants to take care of paying for school. She is currently working two jobs making about 1,500 a month. Will she be eligible for more aid filing alone? Also what type of aid would she get? And finally will it affect any interest rate she would get if she files without her parents? Any info helps! Thanks!!  <response>: It doesnt matter. Its based on your birthdate, not the date you file.
