<p>My parents and I made a mistake on our PROFILE and only realized it after we had sent it. The mistake makes it appear that we need more money than we actually do. Will this mistake be cleared up when the Financial Aid departments receive our 2005 Tax Returns?</p>
<p>after making the CSS PROFILE on collegeboard.com, you should have gotten an email with all your information. you were supposed to print this out and mail them to all your schools, i believe. when doing so, there is a set of directions at the top and it says that if you have made a mistake on your profile, you must directly cross out the numbers you made mistakes on and put the actual, correct value. Then, mail it in. </p>
<p>It sucked for me because I mailed them all in with corrections, only to realize I made another mistake. then i had to send them all in again. Postage is pricey :(</p>
<p>Hope this helps!</p>
<p>Thank you for your help.</p>
<p>How does this correspond with following the deadline, though? My corrections will obviously arrive after the February 1 deadline.</p>
<p>Schools often expect that the corrections will arrive after the deadlines.</p>
