Application submitted to Umass Amherst Early Action but son overlooked the custom question “Please tell us why you want to attend Umass”? My son submitted his application 10/30 but the deadline is tomorrow. Is it too late to answer the custom questions and upload them to his student page separately? Do you think they will frown on him for not completing them in the common app? He is very worried now.
He, not you, should call the admissions office and tell them of his error. He will get his answer then.
also he should email the answer to that question right before/after he calls.
