<p>Has anyone heard back about financial aid? Asking for W2’s and such? Usually schools will ask for more than just the fasfa and css, and I haven’t heard anything from BU yet</p>
<p>Most schools only ask for FASFA, some schools ask for FAFSA and CSS and then some students are asked to supply more detailed tax information</p>
<p>BU did not ask me for any additional tax information other than FAFSA and CSS.</p>
<p>@bigbooklover - Some schools only require CSS, I think. Brandeis only asks for CSS not the FAFSA - just clarifying. 
</p>
<p>Thanks…I think only private schools ask for CSS…most state schools just want the FAFSA</p>
<p>yeah BU only asked me CSS and FAFSA. some other schools asked for tax transcript and stuffs like that</p>
<p>@papertowns57 - If BU needs something more, you’ll definitely be notified - but in most cases, CSS and FAFSA will suffice. Some other schools, like Georgetown and Harvard, require you to file an IDOC which is basically additional documentation to verify financial info (i.e. you send in your parents’ W-2s.)</p>
