I submitted the CSS with 8 schools on it, but 2 of them (Princeton and Caltech) are for some weird reason not appearing on my IDOC. What should I do??
(And could this mean that they already disqualified me out of the applicant pool)?
Not all CSS schools require IDOC. Read the school financial aid pages to see if IDOC was supposed to be there.
Both Princeton and Caltech require an IDOC…
Princeton does not use the CSS Profile and does not use IDOC as a means of transmitting financial aid information.

So how should I send all the tax forms to Princeton it doesn’t make any sense…

Yes, it helps to read the directions. They are all spelled out very clearly on the Princeton financial aid web pages.
Oh I’m sorry for that I missed that page.
But what should I do about CALTECH? That doesn’t appear on my IDOC and they do use the idoc…
Could this mean that I was already disqualified?
From the Caltech website:
[You should really improve your researching skills…]
“Caltech is not listed as one of my IDOC schools.
Caltech works with IDOC differently than most other schools. Caltech will not request your information from IDOC until after you have been accepted for admission. This means that Caltech will not be present on your list of schools on the IDOC website, and you will not see any Caltech-specific forms in your required document list. Please review our list of required documents carefully and be prepared to submit them all to IDOC, even if IDOC does not appear to be requesting some of them. IDOC will process them and keep them on file; once you are admitted, your Caltech-specific documents will be delivered to us.”
Many colleges aren’t on IDOC. In those cases, if they want financial documentation you send it directly to their financial aid office. They will provide instructions.
