<p>jc,</p>
<p>Please take some time to read alamemom’s later financial aid posts. She states what is included in the final statement. You have until May 1 to make a decision about college choices.</p>
<p>After reading her detailed explanations and you still have questions call or e-mail the financial aid office. If you live close to campus an appointment is even better. Have your copies of financial statements and tax forms at hand for any communication with the office.</p>
<p>Most private colleges/universities use the CSS profile.</p>
<p>'Hope this all works out…</p>
