How much will it affect my application if I send in my graded essay a day late?

<p>I can't believe it...but I completely forgot that I needed to get a graded essay in for Choate, and the application is due tomorrow. I don't have any essays at home that I can use. If I send in an essay Monday, how much will that affect my chances? I'm kicking myself right now...ugh...</p>

<p>I’m not applying to Choate, but is the due date the 10th? </p>

<p>Call them and ask, I think that’s the best way to get a worthwhile answer.</p>

<p>Yes, the due date is the 10th. I’ll call…gosh I feel so stupid x_x</p>

<p>same here. i asked my teacher if i could email a new essay to him today and he could grade it really quick so i could send it in via GoChoate!</p>

<p>Do you have any essay from earlier this year or last year at hand?</p>

<p>I have essays on my computer, but none graded. They’re all at school :confused: Oh my gosh…I’m freaking out right now. I can’t believe I forgot this.</p>

<p>all my essays are on periodics which we have to do 2 drafts in 45 mins + a prewrite sometimes so they are DEFINITELY not what I would call ‘good quality’. oh, and they’re all at school. :confused: yeah- i think you can see why i want to escape.</p>

<p>I would take a deep breath, relax, and get the essay to Choate as soon as you can. First of all I don’t see that it would be a problem, if the rest of your application is there, and second, that’s all you can do. Imagine the office with all these things coming in, it probably takes them a few days just to get everything filed and logged.</p>
