2010 Applicants: Answer to "Is Dec. 1st the deadline for EVERYTHING?"

<p>I just ordered my score report yesterday…is that too late?</p>

<p>If you just ordered the score reports, FAXing in unofficial reports would be a good idea.</p>

<p>Does 11:59PM mean 11:59PM EST or PST?</p>

<p>All Common Application time stamps will be in Eastern Time. USC has always used Pacific time for their deadline and I feel confident that will be the case this year as well, which would mean that an Eastern Time time stamp of 2:59am would be “on time.”</p>

<p>Any current applicants who call today to verify this information - please post the response to help other worried applicants relax.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Do official AP scores need to be sent by Dec 1st for merit scholarship?
Thank you.</p>

<p>No, official AP scores are not required for scholarship consideration.</p>

<p>Official AP scores are sent after acceptance and after you have selected which university you will attend. The most convenient time to send is to designate the school which you will attend as an automatic score recipient when you take your May, 2014 AP tests - all your scores will go with that report. (Remember, by May 1st you WILL know where you will be attending!)</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>
