<p>On the website it states that these forms are a part of the Columbia Application for Undergraduate Admission...does this mean that if you don't fill it out on time that it will effect the admission decision?</p>
<p>if you dont fill them out on time you might not get financial aid.</p>
<p>Probably won't affect the admissions decision, you just won't get any financial aid.</p>
<p>Columbia is need-blind so your financial situation doesn't even get seen by the admissions commitee until they make a decision. Financial stuff is handled by a separate department.</p>
