Huge mistake in CSS Profile

Applying to College
1

So I accidentally put that my parents have $250,000 in cash when I meant to write $25,000. I already submitted the form and payed and can’t go back to fix it. How do I correct this error?

Log into your CSS Profile account. There will be an orange button to click to make corrections. Good luck! Glad you caught the error! You may also need to contact the financial aid depts of schools you applied to to be certain they got the correction.

From the College Board website:

“Made a mistake? – If you made a mistake on your application or need to include additional information after you submitted, you can update your application once by clicking “Correct Your CSS Profile” on your Dashboard”

There is actually no link on the CSS site called “Correct Your CSS Profile” on your Dashboard”. If you have found it, please provide the URL

It’s probably not open yet, but will be available within your account dashboard.

Made a Mistake?

Don’t worry! If you made a mistake on your application or need to include additional information after you submit, you can update your application by clicking “Correct Your CSS Profile” on your Dashboard. Corrections are available by late November each year.
