    • Q: Is there a form or a way to access waiver codes for college applications? Through the Common App, it is an easy check box.  Some universities will have sections on their applications to be confirmed by the counselors, etc.  But, if this is not the case, I remember an old form that was used in the past. Does anyone remember this?
    • A: Yes, it is a NACAC fee waiver form.  You can read more here https://www.nacacnet.org/student/fee-waivers/
