ED Financial Aid Deadline

<p>Hi, I just have a quick question about the November 16 Financial Aid deadline. Is Columbia really strict about this? Or if you call them and let them know that something might not get in on time, they'll still be ok with it?
In my case, for the Noncustodial profile, I haven't had any contact with my biological dad since I was around 5, so I sent them an email today about a waiver or something, and if we need additional documents, it's highly unlikely that we'll get them all together by the 16th.
Also, what's the average length of the tax returns that people send in? I've seen a variety of numbers for this, and I have to send in probably abouy 60 pages and am wondering what's the best way to go about copying this many pages efficiently.
I do realize that I have procrastinated horribly on this so yes, all this stress is my fault...
Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>hm…we only sent in about 6 pages of tax stuff…maybe we did somethign wrong?! whattt.</p>

<p>you should submit CSS as soon as possible and call columbia about the situation</p>
