Have I left the financial declaration too late? URGENT!!!

<p>So, I got an e-mail from GWU on the 31st of January saying that they need a bank statement to prove that my parents are able to fund my education. Then, in the e-mail it says that if this isn't done within a week, the admissions office will assume that I'm no longer interested in GWU (quite the contrary).</p>

<p>Now it's the 9th and my dad's out of the country (I need his signature and his bank's signature) and I have no idea what to do...</p>

<p>Is it too late to send these documents? Should I call the admissions office?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>You applied for financial aid, right? You don’t need to prove you can afford GW and if thats the case it may be a scam.</p>

<p>^ No, I didn’t apply for financial aid; that’s why I need to send this form.</p>

<p>It would be entirely appropriate for you to call the admissions office to be guided through this.</p>

<p>This is absurd and I am 90% sure this is a scam, especially trying to get you to act quickly. Contact the school before you do anything.</p>

<p>I think spazman’s situation is a little different if he’s a non-US citizen. Profile says “London”. If that’s the case - GW does require documentation that you and/or your parents can afford this very expensive school.</p>

<p>It’s the same of US students applying to study outside of the US - My “D” wanted to study @ St. Andrew’s and we had to provide a notarized bank statement verifying our ability to pay.</p>

<p>To OP - call both admissions and FA and get the real scoop!</p>
