<p>Does clicking to submit the CSS Profile count as postmarking it before the deadline. I just want to be safe since I'm finishing it up, and ED is next Wednesday, and I know it says that you should do it a week before the deadline to allow for processing, though it also says that it definitely must be submitted before the earliest priority deadline (11/1), so am I good as long as I click submit before 11/1?</p>
<p>Not sure but if it says to do it a week before the deadline to allow for processing then I would send it today.
I do know that you should not wait until 10/31 to click submit because it may get jammed up with all the others trying to do the same thing.</p>
<p>Woah! Sorry to interrupt, but I was told by my counselor that I couldn't do the PROFILE or the FASFA until December or January. My Vandy EDI is 11/1 and I am sending in my stuff this Friday. Do I need to do this PROFILE before Nov. 1sts? I was under the impression that you were not open to do so until much later??!</p>
<p>It depends on the college, I think. And yeah, my counselor did the same thing, which is why we just started rushing the CSS PROFILE yesterday, but it's not like taxes where every single little thing has to be exact - you have to estimate some things. As of right now there was only one space that we could not fill out just because of a need for elaboration. I think we'll send it tomorrow - I'll just take it as the Wednesday before the Wednesday deadline, so should I be fine? It says that collegeboard records the date and time you submit the application too.</p>
<p>The FAFSA for the 2007-08 school year will not be able to be submitted before January 1, 2007. However, the Profile is able to be submitted now. Many schools have priority deadlines for the Profile for ED/EA applicants. We almost MISSED the deadline last year for DD. SO...check your finaid websites if you are applying EA or ED.</p>

At this stage of the process you should be using the college websites and admission offices for deadline information, not your HS counselors.</p>
<p>omg, I have 7 days... ugh!</p>
<p>quick question: Collegeboard profile, which CAN be submitted now, will use 2005 TAX FORMS, correct?</p>
<p>Proifle askes for information from:
2005 taxes
2006 taxes (give estimates now)
2006 current finances
2007 estimates</p>
<p>I called Yale on the 24th and they said I should submit Profile that night to ensure it gets there in time to receive a pkg come Dec. I said the website said Nov 1 deadline for Application and Profile and she said that was for admissions, not aid. That I should submit it right away - not wait until 11/1. Certainly seems misleading.</p>
<p>It's very confusing! I just sent mine yesterday (Friday the 27th). I will just be happy if it doesn't affect the admissions process; I can wait to hear about aid!</p>
<p>I am thoroughly confused. I am sending my CSS Profile tomorrow because I read on the college website that the CSS profile is due Nov. 1st, but reading this thread, I should have already sent it? Does that mean that if I send it tomorrow, even though its before the deadline, they won't consider it?</p>
<p>What I've heard is that the due date for financial aid information isn't extremely important. Basically, they don't even look at it until you've been accepted (3-4 weeks)...so if you submit 1 of the multiple financial aid things a few days late, it doesn't really matter</p>
<p>OMG i totally didn't know it took a few days to process. i just sent mine in after finishing my early app today also and then it said "it won't be sent until 11/5" and i started freaking out and came on collegeconfidential. it's too bad i did not read this thread a few days earlier. i dont think there's much to do about it now but it'd be reassuring if someone could post the details about it. i really hope filing to CB date is the one they mean. im sure tons of students do that?</p>
<p>where it says the date it is supposed to be sent (on status page), is it supposed to change every day? I have been looking at it and the day it will be sent seems to be adding one day everyday.</p>
