<p>So, I ticked the Art Supplement box on the common app. But the deadline was a month back.
(Could that be the reason I haven't received an correspondence from Stanford - about receiving my application?)</p>
<p>Also, I made a calendar for 2014. I would like to send this to the admission office.
Will that be counted as an art supplement? and basically, should I?</p>
<p>Bump 10char</p>
<p>The time to submit your art supplement has long passed…it was 12/15/13…</p>
<p>…unfortunately, they most likely will evaluate your application without the art supplement…</p>
<p>…I would recommend calling the admissions office to see how this will potentially affect your application…</p>
<p>Wasn’t it 12/1/13? Anyway, you needed to submit an arts supplement through Slideroom - so I guess you they won’t evaluate your app with the arts supp, like gravitas said.</p>
<p>You missed the deadline. Accept your fate.</p>
<p>@coolbeans123…you are correct…the regular art supplement was due 12/1/13 (one month before the regular apps were due)…my bad…I was off by 2 weeks.</p>
<p>So, I’ll mail them saying that I (can’t) won’t be submitting the art supplement?</p>
<p>At this point in time…very late…if you mail the Art Supplement…it will most likely be NOT CONSIDERED…or it may (depending on whether you are the next Picasso or Mozart)…only the admission (gods) will know at this time…</p>
<p>…there is no clear right or wrong answer here…do what YOU think is appropriate now…and let the lottery balls tumble…</p>
<p>I guess it’s best not to!
Can you suggest some humorous manner in which I can convey this - i.e. why I didn’t submit the art supplement… (Too dumb to check the deadline passed a month ago/ or accidentally clicked it)
Please advice…!!
<em>ASAP - I’m already running late.</em> :/</p>
<p>PS- I’m in fact sending a calendar of my photographs(of my photographs) by mail. So, I guess I’ll attach the letter there…</p>
<p>Look Stan…if you believe you are the next Robert Mapplethorpe or Ansel Adams…there is nothing to lose in submitting your photographs (other than the cost of postage)…it can make the difference as I have said before…the worst that could happen is that they IGNORE it because it is “too late”…or for some reason…they may review it…one never knows…</p>
<p>…because when it comes to admissions…there are so many variables/intangibles at play…</p>
<p>…bottom line…they are looking for the best students who are academic scholars with some special talent(s)…</p>
<p>…all TOP schools are willing to bend/forgive applicants “errors” if they have what they are LOOKING for…</p>
<p>+1 on your views there gravitas.
Well, I checked SlideRoom and apparently the only links available anymore are the Transfer Supplements.
So, hard luck there.</p>
<p>Now, what should I write in the mail, where I ask for their forgiveness…</p>
<p>…if you are applying to Stanford…you should be smart enough to know what to say in your “apology”…time is of the essence…live long and prosper…</p>
<p>It depends on who reads it. </p>
