<p>I got an email a few days ago informing me that my parent's Schedule C was missing from my financial aid paperwork. I faxed it on as soon as I could, but I'm concerned that I'm going to have less of an advantage than people who got all their paperwork in on time. Does MIT prioritize their aid depending on how soon you get it in, or is the date you receive your information the only thing affected?</p>
<p>The date you receive your financial aid package is the only thing that’s affected. </p>
<p>One year, my dad didn’t send in my financial aid renewal paperwork until July. 
I still got the same amount of aid as I did every other year.</p>
