<p>Does MIT have a cover letter to use when sending financial aid info? I don't see it anywhere but I want to make sure before sending our taxes, etc.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>MIT wants you to use IDOC, not mail them directly.</p>
<p>Hey crazymomster,</p>
<p>They actually <em>do</em> want you to mail them all the tax info in <em>addition</em> to the IDOC! I didn’t realize it until my son got an email and then I did a little digging. I called MIT f. aid and they told me, yep, we want you to send or fax us everything! I forgot to ask about a cover sheet, though, and they are super busy right now. Here’s the link to where I found the info (it was in my son’s email and sorry I don’t know how to use ■■■■■■■!):</p>
<p>[Deadlines</a> & Requirements | MIT Admissions](<a href=“How to apply for aid | MIT Admissions”>How to apply for aid | MIT Admissions)</p>
<p>Notice it says they require parents to send all that stuff directly to MIT in addition to the IDOC. Who knew???</p>
<p>OK hmm, I suppose I missed the fine print! </p>
<p>That’s really odd though. </p>
<p>Thanks for the head’s up.</p>
<p>Go back and re-read the link you sent me… your S is not “international”… the tax forms are required for all internationals, otherwise, only IDOC.</p>
<p>You had me freaked out for a minute! Crazymomster is right, IDOC only for domestic folks.</p>
<p>Oh my gosh, you’re totally right! (Our power was out and I just saw this) I wonder why the lady in the office told me different? I guess she assumed we were international!</p>
<p>Thanks for noticing that, momster!</p>
