D. Student Aid Report
Solution
Answer
The answer is A. CSS Profile
Explanation
Option A: CSS Profile
The CSS Profile is a financial aid application used by many private colleges and universities to assess a family's financial situation in more detail than the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). It provides a comprehensive overview of a family's financial status, which helps schools determine the amount of non-federal financial aid they can offer.
Option B: Financial Aid Letter
A financial aid letter is typically sent by a college or university to inform a student of the financial aid package they are being offered. It is not a form that requests financial details from the applicant.
Option C: Loan Application
A loan application is a form used to apply for a loan, often detailing the borrower's financial situation. However, it is not specifically used by private schools to request financial details for the purpose of assessing financial aid eligibility.
Option D: Student Aid Report
The Student Aid Report (SAR) is a document that summarizes the information submitted on the FAFSA. It is not a form that requests additional financial details; rather, it provides a summary of the information already provided.
