Does incomplete financial aid information effect admission chances?

So long as you applied for financial aid, and your dad fills out the FAFSA and CSS Profile with estimated figures, it should not effect your chances of admission. However, if accepted, your acceptance package will not contain a financial aid award. That will be sent later when Harvard receives his 2011 Tax return via IDOC system on the CSS Profile.

BTW:This applies not just to Harvard, but to all the colleges you applied to. See: Institutional Documentation Service (IDOC) – CSS Profile | College Board;
