Does anyone know if it is too late to update some numbers on CSS for ivy schools?
What does the school require? Do they want tax returns sent through IDOC?
What numbers do you need to update?
@mommdc Thanks. for Parent contribution amount. just want to let them know my parents can contribute more.
Since decisions are coming out in the next few days you might as well wait for the decision and the award letter. Then ask for a financial review.
That question about how much your parents can contribute probably doesn’t matter in the financial,aid calculation equation…unless you are an international student applying to a need aware school.
But really…it’s March 27…and likely decisions are already in the mail…or at least have been made.
Also…if your parents can contribute more…would you be asking for a review so you could receive LESS need based aid?
was not sure if it helps for the chance to be admitted.
If you are a US citizen or permanent resident, then your ability to pay more is not going to matter. If you are an international student, where your need may be a factor in admissions, it probably is not going to matter much because it is a big competitive pool and if you are denied, it most likely will not be on the the basis of money (because they manage to fund the students that they want).
Thanks. I am a US citizen.
