Am I too late?

<p>This is my first post on CC, I made an account just to ask a few questions about the Common App.</p>

<p>I'm currently scrambling to get my Common App submitted on time. I would explain why it's taken me so long to get this done, but you're not here to read excuses. My question is: is it too late to apply to a college who's deadline is on the 9th or 10th of January? How about the 1st? I read that it can take up to 48 hours for fee payments to go through. I've also read that the Common App website is generally a mess when it comes to this.</p>

<p>I would also really appreciate it if some of you could look over my CA essay. Just give me your gmail and I can share it with you on Google Drive. :)</p>

<p>I think if you are already done with common app essay then completing the common app won’t take much time… But u will need to devote a lot like A LOT of time for college specific essay- supplement writing because it is very much important. </p>

<p>I can review your essay, my id is har****<a href="mailto:a_joshi@live.com">a_joshi@live.com</a></p>

<p>Nope, You should be good for all deadlines as long as you complete the app by midnight the day before its due. At least this was fine for me, as I submitted one of my applications at night the day before it was due and it all worked out. If you do not receive a confirmation email from each college within about a week after submission, contact them and explain your situation; admission counselors are generally very understanding with this, especially this year with CA’s problems. You should be fine though. Just don’t freak out and make sure everything (CA, supp, test scores, payment) is in by tomorrow night for 1/1/14 deadlines.</p>

<p>Thank you so much guys! Really needed some reassurance.</p>
