Advice Needed For Rd Apps....

<p>could anyone tell me whens the best time to send off RD apps- when shud be the latest date-around 20th Dec?
also,how many pages shud the resume be ideally?
did anyone like make their resume attractive like superficially like font colour and all- i mean doesnt that like take impresson away from the real deal?
also,shud the resume be signed and attested by the Guidance counselor and printed on a school letterhead???</p>

<p>hope some of u could help me out in this dilemma......
thanks</p>

<p>um the latest it should be sent is dec 31 (or jan 1 depending on the school)). they dont care when you send it; a deadlines a deadline. dont read too far into the presentation of your materials. its not the format theyre judging, its the content, which will be the same regardless.</p>

<p>hmm thank sour..but just dint have alot of space in the commonapp
thats y sending it</p>

<p>im not saying dont send your resume, just dont spend hours fretting over how many pages it should be or the color of the font.</p>

<p>right...resumes don't have to be signed by counselors either. They should be around 1-2 pages, short/concise.</p>
