Hear back from Need Access/FAFSA? Tax forms?

Post by ocuviper » Wed Feb 15, 2012 4:08 pm

Hi all,

I submitted my FAFSA and Need Access a few weeks ago, but haven't gotten word from any schools. Is this normal?

Also, aside from Cornell can you think of any schools in the top 20 that require tax forms?

Yes, it's normal not to get confirmations from the schools. If you're concerned, call the school and check but I wouldn't bother.

Yes, several other schools require taxes. Just off the top of my head of schools I applied to I know Columbia and GULC do. Harvard and Penn do as well but I think it's after the initial award.

So current taxes need to be submitted before the due date (3/15)???.

Or could I submit my parents 2010 taxes, then send in the 2011 when it's done?
