did not submit supplement yet! is that bad?

<p>hey guys!</p>

<p>the final deadline is january 1st right? so i was working on my stuff in common app and when i went for print preview, it says return the supplement by december 1. is this bad now that i am 12 days late? i mean, will they still read my stuff and assign me an interview and all that, or am i pretty much rejected becasue i didnt get it in on time? </p>

<p>isnt december 1st recommended, but not mandatory, right?</p>

<p>it's fine, the deadline is January 1st. The earlier the better though.</p>

<p>"December 1st recommended, but not mandatory, right?"</p>

<p>Correct.</p>

<p>you should try to get it in soon...I think for an interview you should have submitted before or on Dec 1st but I'm not sure</p>

<p>I submitted on Nov 30th, but I still haven't been contacted for an interview, I think I may call them :) good luck!</p>

<p>good question… anyone know???</p>

<p>The Supplement has no bearing on your interview…you merely have to have the main common app in for that to be assigned…I have already had my interview, and I don’t, as of today, have my supplement in…</p>

<p>As long as you submit by the actual deadline January 1st, you should be fine.
If you think you’re late, you’re not; I just submitted my common app today and still haven’t submitted my supplement due to my internal debate of choosing whether or not I should write the optional essay :/</p>

<p>So if you send it on Jan 1st, will you still have an interview?</p>

<p>What if you submitted your app today? Will you still be able to get an interview?</p>
