<p>Hey, I'm applying to a few Ivies, but I'm unsure about how financial aid works. Do I just have to fill out and submit the CSS profile?</p>
<p>Are there individual deadlines for each Ivy? I was hoping I could get a quick answer here, instead of searching school websites. Thanks.</p>
<p>I think you do the CSS profile and the FAFSA. And I believe the due date for most of them is in either February or March</p>
<p>You fill out the CSS profile and FAFSA. As for deadlines, you just need to worry about state and federal deadlines for the FAFSA, which are not necessarily (and usually are not) the same. Even though the FAFSA is a federal form, your state uses it for aid as well.</p>
