<p>I read somewhere on CC that Swarthmore had sent out a postcard announcing an extension of the application deadline. Does anyone know about this? Have they announced an extension or is it only for selected applicants?</p>
<p>bump???</p>
<p>They usually do extend the deadline. I can’t tell you the details, but you could call or e-mail admissions. Or, just send in your app.</p>
<p>In 2004 when my son was applying, they had extended their deadline.</p>
<p>My D got a postcard saying the deadline was extended until 1/15. The postcard was from the multi-cultural recruitment department.</p>
<p>I recieved the same letter as susanr64’s D, from the multicultural department. I believe it was only given out to select students, possibly because they want to raise their percentage of ethnically diverse students at Swarthmore. Oddly enough, it also came with a fee waiver.</p>
<p>Thanks all. Unfortunately my ds doesn’t qualify as multi-cultural. Swarthmore looks great, but I guess his list is already big enough. Good luck to your kids.</p>
<p>Has anyone with an extended deadline submitted their application after 1/02/10? Did you have any problems submitting it?</p>
<p>do i just send the postcard in an envelope or what am i supposed to do???</p>
