When do need based aid reports come from the schools?

<p>Considering I get my FAFSA done as soon as its available on january 1…
When do the aid reports usully come from the schools?</p>

<p>I am asking this because I have been told that some aid reports can come as late as June, yet I know that the deadline to notify most schools of whether you’ll be attending is around May 1.</p>

<p>My decision to attened a school WILL be based on how much aid I get. I KNOW that I wont be able to make a decision without knowing how much money I get from a school…and taking a risk is not something im intrested in.</p>

<p>So for those of you out there who had experience with this before…when do the reports usully come?</p>

<p>Most FA offers come with or shortly after your acceptance. However, they are often contingent on receipt of the final, filed income tax returns. Once they get those returns, your aid may change, although usually not that much if your original estimates were good.</p>

<p>So for the schools I have already been accepted to…I should hear back about FA offer within a short period of time? (after completing the FAFSA of course…)</p>
