Submit signed copies of all pages, schedules, and forms of the 2006 federal income tax return and W-2 forms for both the applicant and the applicant's parents to the Scripps College Office of Financial Aid.
Corporate and partnership returns must also be included if they have been filed. Although estimates in the financial aid forms can be used to calculate preliminary awards, accurate final awards can only be determined with actual tax data. Please do not submit copies of 'draft' or 'estimated' tax forms; only official copies which have been filed with the IRS are requested.

<p>It says the deadline for Financial Aid PROFILE Form(s) need to be completed and sent by November 15 (minus the FAFSA of course)- so is this included in those forms? Or is this part of the FAFSA? Uh? Help? Please explain?</p>

<p>For school year 2008-2009 you cannot file the FAFSA until 1/1/08. It sounds like you are applying ED(??) which means you must fill out the CSS profile by Nov. 15 and turn in a copy of this years taxes for your family w-2, schedules (if your parents itemize) to the school. They will use this information to pull you together a financial aid package when you are admitted.</p>

<p>hope this helps</p>
