<p>I was checking my financial aid status at BC and it says that I am missing an Incoming Undergrad Validation Form. It also says to check my student aid report for more details. Does anyone else have this?</p>
<p>Haha I’m sorry if this is a dumb question, I was just wondering…</p>
<p>I think it just means that you haven't sent all required fin. aid materials.</p>
<p>Okay I looked up this form online and this is what it said: This form is only required of new students who decide to attend BC. It is mailed to all deposited freshmen after the May 1 Admissions deposit deadline, and to all transfers when they send in their Admissions deposit.</p>
<p>Does everyone else who applied for financial aid currently have this on their status page?</p>
<p>Thanks to all...</p>
<p>I have this also</p>
<p>I have this in my status also. I am not exactly the strongest candidate and I consider BC a reach, so don't get your hopes up on this one. Hopefully it is an indication of acceptance, but I wouldn't hold my breath.</p>
<p>"The validation is mailed from the financial aid office once there is confirmation you will attend Boston College. The validation is something that is not processed until May/June."</p>
<p>There's your answer, not in yet.</p>
<p>I have it too</p>
<p>sorry to change the subject on this forum, but i was just wondering where you guys found this status page. I was admitted EA, but I didn't know there was a page like this and I'd like to check it out. Thanks!</p>
<p>I checked my status and it says i'm missing a student IRS 1040 tax return and Real Estate Verification, but thats not applicable for me, what should i do?</p>
<p>No it doesnt mean anything. BC is a non need-blind school, meaning that they look at financial aid along with your application to decide acceptances. If you get the same message from a need-blind school(Ivy leagues+a few others), it could mean something.</p>
<p>Well, I received emails from Harvard and Yale saying I haven't sent an IDOC (different from FAFSA) to those schools yet. Both are need-blind, but I am a below average applicant (1320 SAT), so I highly doubt that means anything.</p>
<p>I only applied to need-blind schools, but their policy is to inform everyone of missing materials, no matter if you're a shoo-in or a long shot.</p>
<p>So don't stress out. Just wait for your letter. =)</p>
<p>BC : "Application for financial aid will in no way influence an admission decision."
Therefore, they are need- blind.</p>
<p>that is not true
they arent going to deny you admissions bc you cant afford it but they can still consider it
ergo, NOT need blind</p>
