ED Admission - I am in a SERIOUS problem....regarding asking for extension.

<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I have finished my application completely in the majority aspects that is - essays, reccs, standardized scores, resume, EVERYTHING complete- 100%</p>

<p>Well, as the optional supplemental portion, I am planning on sending dance DVDS to my ED university (Duke) regarding my past dance performances. I have even expressed interest and e-mailed the dance director and talked about my goals at their university. She responded:</p>

<p>"Thank you for your interest in the Duke Dance Program. There is not
much left for me to say as you have investigated and summed up in your
email most of what you could be involved with at Duke in terms of dance
activities....I look forward to seeing your video/DVD. Good luck with your admission at Duke."</p>

<p>My problem:
Because the company I sent it to is compiling like about 6 performances on one DVD by taking different pieces from various 5 DVDs, it is taking some time to get this process done. With the deadline on November 1st, I am ready to submit everything but the dance dvds. Now I know that at this time, applications are piling in, well for Duke maybe only 2000 applications because its only ED. Though deadline for everything is November 1st, I wanted to ask for an extension to the dance teacher if I can submit those DVDs on November 10th. I guess especially after speaking with that dance teacher and expressing strong interest (I mentioned so many specific groups and organizations I would like to take part), is it ok if I send an e-mail to her asking for that extension. I definitely plan on submitting all the required stuff in by Nov 1st, but this is just an additional thing, which I believe will really help an experienced dancer such as myself get admission..</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>I think it's possible to ask the dance teacher if you could submit the DVD's on November 10th. After all, don't the SAT scores themselves for the October sitting get mailed only on November 4th?</p>

<p>Since I don't think you're going to major in dance (if Duke even has such a major), I hope they'll allow your supplementary data be submitted a little later.</p>

<p>Best to just email the dance teacher herself and possibly the admissions committee and ask.</p>
