<p>But the Harvard Financial aid instructions say to submit the IDOC by March 1. Will this hurt my chances at getting full consideration for financial aid?</p>
<p>Short answer: No.</p>
<p>Long answer: No.</p>
<p>No, it’s fine… you may get your financial aid package on April 20 instead of April 10, but you’ll get a package, no problem (and really, they received it in the first week of march… i wouldn’t think your package would be delayed by more than a couple of days… more like April 14 instead of April 10 or something like that, as long as you get accepted, of course)</p>
<p>Harvard got my custodial parent’s IDOC stuff on February 18, but my non-custodial parent’s stuff hasn’t gotten there yet… postmarked on march 2)… but it’ll get there this week</p>
<p>long story short - your getting an aid package will be fine</p>
