<p>I don’t think they award financial aid without the Profile (but I don’t really know). However, I would get your Profile (including IDOC) done ASAP and submit it. Definitely call the financial aid office, and see what exactly it means and what can be done. I believe, they will still provide you with financial aid, but the amount might be reduced. I filed late and they said it wouldn’t affect my aid amount (but I was EA so it might be a different for RD applicants)</p>

<p>"If you have missed the priority filing date for your aid application, you may still apply for financial aid. You should complete all filing requirements as soon as possible. Please keep the following in mind:</p>
<pre><code>* Your award letter may not be ready until after the standard notification dates;
- The student responsibility portion of your award may be higher than the standard amount;
- Certain types of financial aid may no longer be available by the time your application is processed."
