<p>Do colleges consider date of reception, or postmark?</p>
<p>Bump/clarification:</p>
<p>I'm really just wondering if sending out my recommendations and SSR next Monday, the 27th, will be accepted by Stanford for the EA deadline on the first of November. I'm not necessarily sure if it will arrive there before the first, so I wanted to ensure it would be fine.</p>
<p>So...will it?</p>
<p>I understand it to be the postmark</p>
<p>Be careful.
Some schools state that materials must be postmarked by a give date. Other universities insist that materials be received by the deadline date.
If you overnight your stuff on the 27th, it will arrive to Stan. 1st.</p>
<p>I agree with jgboggs--send it overnight/certified.</p>
<p>Will do. Thanks.</p>
