When exactly do I have to start filling out financial aid forms/FAFSA forms?

Paying for College
1

<p>While applying to college, or after my acceptance letters? I’m just about done applying to schools of my choice for Early Action, so do I have to worry about it now or later? How much later?</p>

<p>You need to check on each school’s site. Some schools will require early FA info (particularly those that use CSS Profile).</p>

<p>This is a frustrating situation. I need to pay $16/school to CSS Profile for each EA application, even though DD might not even get accepted.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, I don’t see any way around it.</p>

<p>That’s the way it works.</p>
