<p>I was recently interviewed by an alumnus who strongly encouraged me to send in slides of my artwork, despite being past the deadline.</p>
<p>Yale's website says that no supplementary materials will be considered after December 31st, but a few people have told me to disregard that message.</p>
<p>Yale's my first choice school, so I really don't want to do anything that would jeopardize my decision.</p>
<p>Would sending in slides several weeks late hurt me? (or would it have no effect at all?)</p>
<p>A lot of the alumni interviewers are ill-informed about the current admissions scene, even those who graduated 5 years ago. I can't tell you if sending in the slides would jeopardize your application, but I wouldn't base your decision to send them in on a comment by an alumni interviewer.</p>
