Oh shoot!

Paying for College
1

<p>Okay so today is the deadline for one of my schools. I just submitted the application & supplement. My counselor has already sent in all the forms. However, we have not sent in the College Board Fee Waiver!</p>

<p>I got a fee waiver for my SATs so I qualify for four of my colleges to be waived. But I don't have the forms because my counselor did not tell me that I actually needed to sign forms and send them in. Maybe she didn't know either. </p>

<p>I'm really worried now that my application is incomplete and I'll be automatically rejected.</p>

<p>I won't see her until the 6th and the waiver probably wouldn't get there until sometime Thursday or Friday next week.</p>

<p>I'm going to email admissions and ask whether they will still accept my app, but does anyone know about this? Thanks.</p>

<p>If it's going to cause day of stress, pay the fee now and don't worry. I don't think a delayed fee waiver would cause your app to be rejected - it's doubtful they're going to get everything matched and actually review your file by next Friday. If you know they accept fee waivers, the risk is low. But you did wait til the last minute and probably have enough stress in your life. Not worth worrying over!</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
