<p>I was waitlisted in March, and the deadline to respond to the list seemed far off at that time, so I got bummed out, put the letter away, and forgot about it for a while...and then I looked at it again and it's DUE TODAY. Is there anything I can do to stay on the list at this point, or am I wasting my time?</p>
<p>Send it via express courier, then call MIT and let them know. I dont think they'll reject the response card if you're just a couple days late.</p>
<p>One of my friends submitted his whole application 2 months after the deadline, but still got a personalized response 15 days after all other decisions were mailed. This is MIT :)</p>
<p>I'd suggest you fax it to them today also.</p>
