CSS Profile got me lost - can someone break it down?

Financial AidCSS Profilefinancial aidscholarshipsFAFSA

Hey everyone, I'm in the thick of my financial aid applications and the CSS Profile is driving me nuts! I've got a decent grasp on FAFSA, but the CSS seems to dig way deeper into details, and I'm worried I'll mess something up.

What’s the deal with this form? Do schools mainly use it for their own financial aid, or could it also affect merit scholarships? Really appreciate any help you can offer!
