Financial Aid for ED/EA Applicants Requirements vary, and it is very important that you check and follow the policy set by each individual school. Some colleges require that you file the CSS PROFILE as early as the application deadline. Other schools do not require any forms until after January 1, when the FAFSA becomes available. If you cannot find the information on the school website (Admissions page, Tuition and Fees, or Financial Aid page), call the Financial Aid office directly. |
