Financial Aid Without CSS Profile?

Chief Pablo here.
So I applied to Northwestern for RD and I completed my FAFSA. I was looking on Northwestern’s website and it said a CSS profile was due Feb 15. I had no idea what this was and from my little understanding, I believe it is used for colleges to help determine how much financial aid you will need. Since I didn’t do that, is it still possible to receive financial aid from NU?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Call the NU fin aid office today and ask if you can still submit CSS…try now, some people might already be at work. https://undergradaid.northwestern.edu/help/contact.html Telephone: (847) 491-7400

Have you submitted CSS for other schools, or will this be your first filing…because it’s going to take some time to pull together all the required financial info.
