Hi everyone,
I applied Regular Decision.
I was checking my portal, and I realized that I did not submit my CSS profile. I must have forgotten to submit it to this particular school, but I’m freaking out as I would hate to not be able to attend because of my negligence. Am I automatically going to be disqualified from receiving any type of financial aid?
It’s possible but you never know unless you call. Get your decision tonight, and if you are admitted, then call the financial aid office (not the admissions office) first thing tomorrow.
@Choski94 You’re right. I’m not paying the CSS fee until I’m absolutely sure XD

Me too
Not first thing tomorrow. First thing Thursday. I believe the admissions office is closed tomorrow.
Yes, admissions is closed tomorrow. I was talking about financial aid office. Different offices.
Hi guys. I was waitlisted. I’m going to do everything in my power to get off. Wish me luck!
Remember that if you don’t get off the waitlist within a certain time frame you may not get much or any financial aid. I still recommending calling the financial aid office to discuss with them. And not meaning to seem discouraging, but some colleges can and/or will pull students off their waitlist based on their ability to be full pay, since by that time financial aid may be all gone.
If you get in off the waitlist, you will get full financial aid. So don’t worry about not getting the same amount of money if you come in that way.
However, they are need-aware when pulling from the waitlist, so if you don’t need aid it might slightly increase your chances of being accepted, and if you do, it might slightly decrease them.
