    I'm attempting to get into graduate school (previously discussed GPA situation on this board), but if I don't get in anywhere, I've decided I will enroll for a 2nd BA. I've already submitted a Graduate FAFSA application to my school of choice. Will I have to reapply with an Undergrad FAFSA application if I end up needing to go for my 2nd BA (likely scenario) or will the Graduate FAFSA work for both? Is there a way to make sure the funds come out of the undergrad loan limits instead of the graduate limits if I do go for the 2nd BA?

    There is only one FAFSA. You would just add the school code for the 2nd institution, and your enrollment in an undergraduate program would trigger the financial aid office to award you undergraduate-level loans.

    Did you use financial aid to pay for your undergrad? Because if so, you will not be able to use it to pay for another one. You can get as many graduate degrees as you want (within the loan limits) but you can only get 1 undergrad degree.
