<p>When I finished part 1 of my application I said I WAS (by checking a box) applying for financial aid.</p>
<p>Then I decided I WAS NOT and noted the fact in the additional information section of part 2.</p>
<p>Still at mymit account I have a financial aid tab that is warning me that my application is not complete and my CSS profile and tax documents are missing (I can't do the FAFSA, I'm international).</p>
<p>I called to MIT Admissions Office and I was told to ignore it but should I send an email or something? Also other universities require you to send some kind of proof you can pay for the first semester or something similar. Does MIT? once I accept admission perhaps?</p>
<p>So you want to apply, or not? I didn’t get it.
The Admissions Office has nothing to do with financial aid, so you have to contact the Financial Aid Office instead.
MIT doesn’t require financial proof when you apply. But every university does require it when you accept the admission offer.</p>
<p>It would be courteous to let the financial aid office know you won’t be applying for aid, so they don’t spend time trying to track down your documents. But otherwise it is fine just not to finish your application for aid. As far as I remember, MIT does not ask you to provide proof that you can pay; they just send you the first bill for tuition during the summer.</p>

<p>Wow, I didn’t expect this. Sorry for my stupid assumption.</p>
