<p>I have a friend who just logged on her college account and noticed she has to send in financial documents to her school in order to receive her award. The deadline for a college decision is in 6 days and she really wants to go to this college. What should she do?</p>
<p>She should send the documents. Tell her to pick up the phone, and call them and ask what is the fastest way to take care of this.</p>
<p>If there is going to be a delay, she can ask for an extension of the reply date while she waits for the aid package. Normally colleges are happy do do that.</p>
