<p>My friend had difficulty getting onto the common app today and still hasn't been able to submit her applications. Will it be ok if she sends it a few minutes late and emails the colleges' respective admissions offices?</p>
<p>Most colleges have a solid deadline of submitting the Common App and the writing supplement. The materials have been available for months, so I believe the majority will not review the application. If the Common App and writing supplement were submitted before the deadline and only supplemental materials were submitted late (i.e teacher recs, SAT scores, etc.) the college will still review the application.</p>
