The invention provides:a composition for forming an organic film, the composition having high filterability and enabling formation of an organic film which has high pattern-curving resistance, and which prevents a high-aspect line pattern particularly finer than 40 nm from line collapse and twisting after dry etching;a method for forming an organic film and a patterning process which use the composition;and a substrate for manufacturing a semiconductor device, including the organic film formed on the substrate. The composition for forming an organic film includes a condensate (A), which is a condensation product of dihydroxynaphthalene shown by the following formula (1) and a condensation agent, or a derivative of the condensate (A). A sulfur content among constituent elements contained in the condensate (A) or the derivative of the condensate (A) is 100 ppm or less in terms of mass. |
