Different Profile Question

<p>DD applied to an EA school with a priority deadline for the Profile of November 15. We completed that and sent it off. Obviously MOST of the information on it was estimates. Now she is applying to a RD school requiring the Profile (added after she submitted the first one), and it has a bunch of supplemental questions which we did not complete for the other college. My understanding is that we can get the Profile submitted to this second school (for a fee of course) but that no changes can be made on the form and that any changes we make will need to be mailed to the colleges ourselves (which we WILL do when January comes and we have the right info). HOWEVER…what do we do about those supplemental questions? We didn’t even print them out because we had not completed them. Just FYI, this school is Davidson and they ask for MUCH more financial information (cars owned, credit card debt, etc). Help!!!</p>

<p>Let’s see. Bard asked those type of questions.We filled out the profile for only two schools, USC and Bard. One didn’t need as much information as the other. All the financial aid data was mailed after Jan 1st., Fafsa, Profile, supplementary letters, school’s own forms. It took me by surprise. It was like another application process since financial aid was so important for us. There was an initial mistake made on the profile that had to be changed and I think the forms were just mailed in to the schools with the updates and a letter explaining everything. Can’t you just get a copy and fill out what you didn’t on the first one and mail all the needed information on to Davidson? Maybe I am not seeing something.</p>

<p>At this point I THINK I have to have the original Profile we completed sent to Davidson. Then…I think we need to complete the remaining questions that are required by Davidson, and mail those directly to finaid at Davidson, along with any changes we need to make. We do have a copy here and we’ll use that, and maybe use red ink for the changes or something like that. We’ll attach a cover letter too… I think…I’ve not had good experiences getting decent answers from the CB on the phone so I am reluctant to call them directly. I agree Overseas, this process is almost worse than the college application process.</p>

<p>Thumper, it sounds good. We didn’t have much luck with phone calls. Give em everything they need, in details, and check it again! :)</p>
