Application Due Date

<p>So if an early application is due 11/1... do I have to submit the common application tonight or tomorrow night?</p>

<p>End of Nov 1. But make sure you know everything that is needed by then, for example: (a) Does school have supplement to common app that you need to submit by then? (b) Does any such supplement include some form that high school counselor must sign and send by then? (c) Does school require transcript or recommendations to be in mail by then? (d) Does school require official test score to be sent by then? In other words, don't assume that all you need to do is the common app unless you verify that nothing else is needed by Nov 1.</p>

<p>:) Everything but the common app and supplement has been in for a while. I'm just working on editing my essays and didn't want to be caught off guard.</p>

<p>^ Just like me :) lol</p>

<p>Don't wait till the last minute. Servers have a propensity for crashing during times of heavy use. I saw on the Common App thread someone who wrote--The Common App site has been down for 2 hours already. SCARY--I hope it wasn't a Halloween trick!</p>

<p>I agree with ellemenope. Every year, there are many posts by panicked CC members who try to send their apps hours before they are do, and then learn that the college's servers are down.</p>

<p>Just procrastinate and do it tonight...</p>

<p>Is it true that adcoms look down on you if you turn it on the last day? How much does this affect their decision?</p>

<p>^ God... don't worry... there's a DEADLINE for a reason.</p>
