CSS/PROFILE deadline misread. Does this blow my ED2 chances?

<p>I'm an ED2 applicant, and everything for the main application is in. However, I did not realize that the CSS/PROFILE application was due Jan 1 for ED2 (and is due Feb 15 for RD only). </p>

<p>Does this ruin my chances at admission, even if I can get it in by the end of the week? I'm nerve-wracked, and now working furiously with my mother to complete it before I sleep tonight.</p>

<p>It won't affect your admission, but that isn't necessarily a good thing. </p>

<p>Most applicants are fairly confident they'll get the award they need - if that's the case for your family, you have nothing to worry about. If it isn't, then you need to know your financial aid award and not having if/when you are admitted can complicate matters. Call into financial aid and check to see if they'll still be able to put together an estimate for you in time. If not, you might be better off switching your app to regular.</p>
