<p>Can the application be sent by midnight, January 10th (like the Common App) or do they want it before January 10th? I called the admissions office to ask, but they're closed on weekends. Thanks.</p>
<p>…bump…</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure they want it BY January 10th, as in you can submit it online up until Monday night (January 10th) at 11:59pm. If you are mailing it, however, you should have physically mailed it already, otherwise you are taking a great risk.</p>
<p>hope this helps.</p>
<p>Postmarked by 11:59 on the 10th.</p>
<p>are you guys sure?</p>
<p>I’m almost positive, as the word BY means of and including, so it would make sense that they would still accept applications up until tomorrow night (January 10th) at 11:59pm. Anyway, stop worrying and finish the application already!</p>
<p>Yeah, it’s January 10 at 11:59. I know because I applied EA, and I submitted the second part of my app at 10 p.m. on November 1 (the given deadline date). So, you’re fine.</p>
<p>thanks for clarifying! an extra day will certainly help</p>
<p>hey, so my app was mailed in a while ago in late December…but the earliest my teacher rec is going to be sent is tomorrow or the day after, is that bad?</p>
<p>@ metalfox, i’m sure it will be okay as the other parts of your app were sent in so early!</p>
<p>Colleges only want those parts of the application under your control to arrive by the deadline. LOR’s coming in late shouldn’t matter too much if it is just a few days.</p>
<p>Can this in any way be confirmed???</p>
