<p>When I applied to Chicago I didn’t have my tax returns and all the things I needed to apply for the financial aid at the same time. Anyway, I got accepted, its my number one school, and now I’m completely panicked because I won’t be able to even consider trying to finance it without a LOT of help. Do you think that I’m completely screwed or do you think they’ll give me a chance to apply later on?</p>
<p>You probably have time since RD applicants are just now getting there stuff together. Give the financial aid office a call.</p>
<p>You can apply for financial aid at any time during the application process or your time at the college. The deadlines are only to ensure you get a package (or an estimate, under EA) the same time you recieve your offer of admssions.</p>
