So I just got my financial aid package today...

Colleges and Universities A-Z Carnegie Mellon University

<p>And they say its tentative until they receive all financial documents. So under 'Where Am I in the Process?' I have the Student Federal Income Tax Return and Student W-2 Forms blank because I don't have any (I never had a job before). And I think that's the reason why my financial aid was so late, and why its tentative... </p>

<p>Sooooooooo.. How do I get rid of that? Like how would they confirm that I actually don't have one? Do need to get it waived or something? But how do even do that?</p>

<p>SO CONFUSED! AND THANK YOU IN ADVANCE! D:</p>

<p>Call them and tell them. It should have been completed and said WAIVED next to it after submitting your CSS Profile. At least that’s what happened in my case.</p>

<p>There is a form called Student Non-Tax filler claim. You can download from CSS profile site. Sign and fax to them. That should make your FA complete.</p>

<p>^ Interesting. I did fill out that form and sent it via collegeboard, but it had already been waived before that.</p>

<p>Thank you so much! I feel so much more relieved, haha.</p>
