<p>I know this is a stupid question to ask, but -- how important are the deadlines? According to <a is="" for="" admission="">, colleges won't detect you sending your ceredentials late if you send them within one week around the deadline. I still feel not satisfied with my RISD essays, but I do not want to hand in the final draft in a rush as the deadline is coming.</a></p><a is="" for="" admission="">
<p>My test scores and school transcripts have already been sent, and I'm able to sumbit the online application today(magically it does not include an essay secion) and file all my ceredentials besides essays before the deadline (everything else is ready...). Should I risk delaying the deadline or just send in my essays because RISD mostly look at my portfolio? Will they find out if I sent in my essays two or three days after the DL?</p>
<p>Thanks for everyone who replies!</p>
