<p>So one of my college applications is due this coming Monday the 15th, which I just realized is a holiday. I was planning on overnighting the app tomorrow so that they would receive it on Mon, but now they won't get it until Tuesday. Will it be considered late? I sent an e-mail to the school, but they are in a different time zone so they won't get it now until Tuesday. Any thoughts? I know I'm not the only one with a Jan 15th deadline. Thanks.</p>
<p>I know of at least some schools that are extending the application deadline by a day, to January 16th, but I'm not sure if that's standard practice or not. I submitted all my apps with a 1/15 deadline early to make sure they arrived by today.</p>
<p>That hadn't even occurred to me. Honestly, though, I don't think it will matter if it is there on Tuesday. If it makes you feel better, call the admissions office Tues (or the dept office) and let them know that your app will be there that day because of the holiday.</p>
