<p>Since my non-custodial parent won't be filling out the CSS Profile anytime soon, I sent a waiver to Rice a few days after the deadline. They wanted me to send a letter from a guidance counselor, or someone from a third party - but honestly, there's no one who has "personal experience" with my family's situation. I asked my GC and she said it would take her a while, but does anyone have advice about how I go about this?</p>
<p>I didn't receive any award notification on ESTHER, and that makes me worried since Rice is one of my topic choices.</p>
