<p>If you answer no to this question for a college, can you still later apply for financial aid? I applied to Boston College, and at the time I filled out my application I wasn't planning on applying for finaid, but then I decided I was going to, but forgot to change my answer. I already submitted my application weeks ago. Is it still possible apply for aid, should I call the college and try and work something out? I probably won't get financial aid given my family's income, but I don't want to risk any chance I might have.</p>
<p>I accidentally posted this thread twice…sorry people!</p>
<p>Pick up the phone. Call the colleges & universities. Let them know that your situation has changed, and that you are applying for aid. Ask them what you need to do to change your file.</p>
