CSS Profile got me stressing! What's the deal?

Financial AidCSS Profilefinancial aidscholarshipsFAFSA

Hey, so I’m really trying to wrap my head around how the CSS Profile works. I get that it’s different from FAFSA, but it feels like they’re asking for my whole life story! Can anyone break it down for me?

Also, do colleges use this info strictly for their own scholarships, or could it possibly impact merit aid too?
