what is IDOC?

<p>PLease...i just figured out that the extra financial aid stuff for my private schools were due on February 1st...
what is idoc?
and what do i need/need to do?</p>

<p>If you filed a CSS Profile, you would have received instructions at the end of it regarding IDOC. </p>

<p>IDOC is just a service where you can send you necessary documents; tax returns, w-s, 1099s, etc. Some school subscribe to this service, so you just have to send everything one time to IDOC, instead of sending packet after packet of the same documents to different schools. IDOC scans everything you send and makes it available electronically to all the schools you request.</p>

<p>After completing the CSS Profile, you will be informed as to which schools you listed in your Profile application require information submitted to IDOC. You'll also receive an email with a link to very specific instructions you need to follow in submitting those documents, including an official cover letter that must accompany the documents.</p>

<p>If you did not get this information, then make sure the schools to which you are applying require IDOC. Not all do. If they do, however, you're going to have retrieve that information and submit the required documents.</p>
