<p>I just had the urge to apply to brown after much deliberation does everything including teacher recsand secondary school report have to be in by the 1st? please help i’m desperate!</p>
<p>i think it only has to be postmarked by then.</p>
<p>i guess i'm not applying to brown i havent even given the stuff to my teacher/ counselor</p>
<p>Hey send them an email and explain that to them. Someone at my school did that, their parents wouldn't let them apply initially because they thought it would cost too much. Any way, during the holidays they changed their mind. He explained to Brown what happened and they told him to have his teachers fax everything over ASAP, nonetheless he goes there class of '11. But in the mean time you should finish your part of the application, meaning the essays and filling everything out online. You still have enough time to get that done by the January 1 deadline. They can be lenient about the recs and stuff, but if your part isn't done then there's nothing they can do for you.</p>
<p>thanks that is great advice!</p>
<p>No probs. Good luck! maybe i'll see you at orientation :-D</p>
<p>just out of curiosity where else are you applying?!?</p>
