<p>for all you deferred... what should you be doing another this time? should we submit extra stuff? if so.. wut extra stuff? a letter? another rec? a resume? extra essay?
and i was also wondering if you were allowed to change the essay that you submitted during early action...</p>
<p>another questions: i wonder if during regular action, if they favor a deferree over a regular action applicant. do they even see that we did early action?</p>
<p>they'll see you did early action, but i don't know how much of a factor it will play in admissions decisions (i doubt it would be anything of significance)... as for changing the essays, call the admissions office and ask--they'll have the answer. </p>
<p>I've been deferred too, and i'll probably send some supplementary materials as they come (i.e. if i win a big award or related, i'll notify them)</p>
<p>hope that helps</p>
<p>Matt's blog says he'll discuss what to do if you're deferred on his blog next week.

<p>This feels like club volleyball tryouts...I was never one of the ones who got an "offer" right away, I always had to wait until the Tuesday afterward when the teams had to be finalized, and whoever didn't take their offer for a team gave me their spot.</p>
<p>I never thought I'd have to feel that again.</p>
