<p>Hi, others on this forum might have already posed these questions, yet I'll ask them again since I haven't located so far any direct, condensed answers without ransacking the archives. Perhaps your personal recollections of the admissions process can resolve the confusion.</p>
<p>How do you interpret the deadlines listed on the GS website Important</a> Dates | General Studies ? In other words, which materials does GS have to receive from candidates by these dates?
For instance, if a candidate is seeking EA for fall admission, would not only the application (personal details forms, essay, recommendations, app fee, photo, scholarship app), but also the supporting documentation (transcripts, test scores) have to reach GS by Mar 1, 2012?
Or does the deadline require only the application proper to reach GS by that date? In this case, will the admissions committee then wait for the supplementary materials to review the application, provided the candidate orders them before Mar 1, 2012, according to the dates nominated on the application form?</p>
<p>Thanks for your help!</p>
