<p>So I submitted my Stanford app yesterday (applying REA), and I was wondering when do I apply for financial aid? When do I have to fill out the FAFSA? When do I fill out the CSS Profile?</p>
<p>Also, how do I check my admissions decision on December 15th? </p>
<p>P.S. I know these are "newbie" questions, but I really need to know.</p>
<p>[Applying</a> for Aid : Stanford University](<a href=“Financial Aid : Stanford University”>Financial Aid : Stanford University)</p>
<p>I hope that helps!</p>
<p>So I have to fill out the CSS Profile by November 15th, 2011, since I applied REA? Then, I fill out the FAFSA when it becomes available on January 1st, 2012? </p>
<p>Can you please answer my question about checking admissions decisions?</p>
<p>I think so? I’m new to all this too. And admission decisions are sent by email.</p>
