<p>Alright thanks a lot then natim!</p>
<p>anyone know if we are supposed to call or anything to check if they received our fax?</p>
<p>I am considering not sending the extra documents to two of the schools I ranked. Being that they are binding, I am now apprehensive of going there if I am matched to one of them (considering that I’ve never seen nor been near the schools). I figured I can apply to them through regular admissions since I have to do the common app anyways, but do you think this will hurt my chances (since I didn’t try through QB)? </p>
<p>Also, I understand that when you are a finalist each school is now viewing your application separately, so by not sending it to two schools the others would still be able to consider me, yes or no?</p>
<p>(sorry that this may not be the right area to post this, I’m new at this!)</p>
<p>@browneyezsz: You’re fine. Since each school views it separately and don’t know what other schools you’re applying to. :)</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>CSS Feewaiver question… So QB only gave me two feewaivers and I have like 7 schools. If I’m eligible for a regular CSS profile waiver (by just filling out the profile) does this waiver cover the cost of all the colleges I send it to?</p>
<p>I suddenly cannot have access to my CSS PROFILE! Anyone has the same problem?</p>
<p>same here
I guess it’s the system problem…</p>
<p>Well, from 7 pm - 12 am, I faxed stuff. </p>
<p>At least that’s over with. Haha, it’s been a long night.</p>
<p>ok i have no idea what im doing with this financial aid stuff.
my mom has not helped me with ANY of this and it looks like a kid trying to make up stuff about taxes because she doesnt understand… oh wait… </p>
<p>ugh i bet she would be happy if i went to community college… or worked at denny’s</p>
<p>So does anyone know what to do with Upenn and its financial documents situation?</p>
<p>@stevenboi: I’m just gonna call them today and hopefully they’ll have an answer…</p>
<p>Hey all I have a question.
I’m filling out the Columbia Questionnaire, and there’s a part for which I don’t know what to put.
It is the first table, the family information.
You need to list members of your household and answer a few questions about them. It goes “relationship, age, employer/name of school, year in school, and parent’s contribution.”
What goes into parent’s contribution?</p>
<p>Guys - everyone’s talking about faxing stuff. What exactly are you faxing? Is there something that you’re faxing that you CAN’T mail?</p>
<p>@andromeda89: the fee waiver from College Board covers six colleges.</p>
<p>@NYSpinnerDan: I assumed that Parent Contribution was what your parents were willing/able to contribute to your college tuition. I always put zero because we really can’t afford to pay for my sister so how in the world can we afford to pay for me?</p>
<p>@NYSpinnerDan:
I’m working on the Columbia Questionaire right now so I think I can help u. The parent’s contribution part is under the year 2009-2010, so I think that part asks for your parents’expense for your high school education in your senior year.</p>
<p>Alright thanks.</p>
<p>Another question.</p>
<p>The College Match requirements ask for “2010-2011 CSS PROFILE
(including Noncustodial PROFILE, if applicable)”</p>
<p>What is a noncustodial PROFILE? Do I have to fill out the whole thing again for my father, who is divorced from my mother???</p>
<p>Yes. Your father must fill out the Non-Custodial PROFILE. There are instructions for it in the CSS/PROFILE, when you fill that out. It will email your father the information and he must fill it out. If you are applying for the Match, be careful because that needs to be filled out by Monday. However, if there are exception circumstances under which you feel your father should not be counted toward your financial contribution (i.e., domestic abuse, loss of contact), you can fill out a Non-Custodial Parent Information Waiver form and ask that colleges consider your request.</p>
<p>@misterwang: Some schools prefer faxing over mailing. Plus, faxing takes faster to go through. :)</p>
<p>2 QUESTIONS:</p>
<p>(1) Is there any way to check to see whether our faxes went through?? </p>
<p>(2) When you fax…you can only fax documents one at a time right? This seems like a dumb question but I’ve never faxed before so many pages. It took so long because I had to dial (with phone card) every time I had to send a page…until all 20 pages were sent. For each college. Am I doing this right?</p>
<p>ugh…i just received the fee waiver email for the CSS…but I had already mailed out the CSS because I couldn’t wait any longer for the waiver to come…any way I can get my money back?</p>
