<p>So, I've received calls/letters over the past week from Colby and Tufts requesting financial aid information that my parents still haven't submitted (namely my father's Noncustodial Profile).</p>
<p>Now, some members of my family think that these colleges wouldn't be requesting this information this late in the game unless I had
a) already been accepted, or
b) was a good prospect for acceptance. </p>
<p>My question is: is there anyone here who has been in a similar situation, and did you end up being accepted or rejected?</p>
<p>…I really don’t think so. I think they just send those things to all applicants who applied for finaid but didn’t complete the application. I got such requests from two schools: one a safety and one an über-reach. I wish that it was an acceptance harbinger…</p>
<p>But I feel you on parents filing the Noncustodial Profile 2039875 years late. I just sent my mom’s right now. Ugh.</p>
<p>True; it did strike me as a little odd, though, when Colby literally called my cell phone–you would think, it’s March 13th, why would they bother, presuming that by this time they knew if I was a reject or not.</p>
<p>It means nothing about admissions. Colleges cannot wait until acceptance decisions are made to determine financial aid packages if they want to meet the April 1 deadline, and allow students time to decide where to go.</p>
<p>Yeah, I had the same thing happen to me. Decisions are mailed on Monday, and I just received a letter from Fordham telling me they were missing something from my finaid file. It wasn’t just some generic form though; they also sent a copy of the form that needs to be filled out, and told me to fax everything to them asap. I browsed through some posts from a couple of years back, and it seems that when school’s contacted you that late in the game, it’s generally a good sign. </p>
<p>I mean, just like you said: If you’re rejected, why would they bother when decisions are come out so soon? I applied to a few schools I already knew I had no chance at with the same messed up FAFSA, and they made no mention of it all. So…hopefully it’s good news for both of us.</p>
<p>I posted the same question like a week ago and everyone said no. Middlebury told me to send my CSS Profile because they need to make financial aid determination. I thought I might’ve gotten accepted but wasn’t sure either. Hopefully it’s a good news for all of us!! =D</p>
