<p>Does anyone know if the application deadline for the ivy league schools (around dec 31 and jan 1) is a postmark date or the date the application stuff has to be received by? If it's not the same for each school, what's each school's policy and where can i find that information? I'm specifically concerned with deadline for international applications (from Canada), in case it is different from domestic applications.</p>
<p>nvm, i stopped being lazy for once and looked the stuff up myself, they are all postmark dates, at least the schools i'm applying to.</p>
<p>postmark.
But you have to submit your app online by 1st.</p>
<p>I hope no one thinks I'm ignorant, but postmark dates are the dates on which the mail is sent right?</p>
<p>yep (10 char)</p>
<p>so my school can send the recs and my transcript on january 1st?!.. :O!.. I thought everything had to be there by then... thanks guys!..</p>
<p>It depends on the school, but mostly likely yeah, b/c everyone that i looked at so far are postmark</p>
<p>even if it is later than 1st it doesn't matter much..colleges won't punish u for somthing ur teachers did(posting late)...so, ur application is the main thing which should be postmarked on 1st.</p>
