Can someone please guide me through applying for financial aid for Harvard EA?

<p>I finished my CSS profile and am going to send it today. What else do I do? Be specific please. :D thanks</p>

<p>Your methodology for seeking help on such an important issue is very suspect. You should call Harvard directly if there is anything unclear in their directions/checklists.</p>

<p>Harvard’s directions are very clear: [Application</a> Instructions](<a href=“http://www.fao.fas.harvard.edu/icb/icb.do?keyword=k51861&pageid=icb.page244003]Application”>http://www.fao.fas.harvard.edu/icb/icb.do?keyword=k51861&pageid=icb.page244003)</p>

<p>As T26E4 suggested, if you do not understand something, you should call Harvard for clarification.</p>

<p>Yea, my question was a bit misleading. I just wanted someone to confirm that early applicants don’t do anything for IDOC before like February? The financial aid app for early applicants is just the CSS profile + any supplements which you mail directly to harvard. correct? Thank you.</p>

<p>^^ Early applicants need to send Harvard Financial Aid their 2011 tax returns and W-2’s. You also need to fill out the CSS Profile now with estimated 2012 tax information. Then, when you have firm numbers next year, you update the Profile with exact figures. In March, you submit your 2012 Tax forms to IDOC. If you are a US Citizen, you also fill out the FAFSA after January 1st.</p>

<p>Not all EA applicants need to submit w2’s nor 2011 tax forms as per Harvard instructions. We only submitted CSS profile.</p>
