Just a question. I have already received my aid decision due to the information given by my parents’s most recent tax report and the Collegeboard’s CSS Profile. As far as FAFSA goes, will I need to fill it out despite already receiving my aid decision, cause I know FAFSA is now available, but I’m just not certain. I know I still need to send in the 2014 tax return as soon as I can, but I’m just confused about now. Also, I’m an international student if that makes any difference.
Financial aid “decisions” provided so far are based on 2013 financial information. The FAFSA and CSS that are due next month are for 2014. Final financial aid offers sometimes change from the original, if income from 2014 was significantly different from 2013. Does that make sense? You could call the financial aid office to clarify if you have questions.
Ok thank you! I understand better now!
