CSS profile for schools that haven't accepted me? Forum

[kpadoreo]

I have been accepted to Duke and am completing the CSS Profile, but am wondering if I need to complete it for the schools to which I have yet to be accepted. I would really rather wait before dropping even more money on applications. Would I be able to go back and add more schools to this list later?

You can go back and add schools once you have submitted the CSS. I have just been adding schools that require it as I get accepted.

Okay great. And if I haven't heard back from schools by mid-February though I should probably just go ahead and do it? Or is there not a time limit on the CSS like with the FAFSA?

Looks like some schools require it to be filed by March 1 whether a decision has been made or not, but I would check the website of each school before I spent the money.
