If apps are due by Jan. 1st, what about senior grades/transcripts?

<p>I've decided to apply to more schools than before, and I know I can get the essays and applications done in time before the first, but since I decided over the break to apply, is there ANY way I could still send in my apps, but get the other technical things like transcripts, senior grades, test scores, and counselor recommendations for those school sent in without being rejected for not having my stuff in on time? I'm just wondering, because I don't see the harm in trying to do so. I understand if I can't, but I would love to apply to other communications schools that I hadn't previously heard of or thought about. Additionally, my counselor recs are done, I would just need my counselor to reword one sentence for the particular school. Can it be done or am I out of luck? I didn't procrastinate either, I just wanted more schools.</p>

<p>I imagine that most stuff could be late; I know my schools are OK with a little lateness. Get your test scores sent ASAP and they will likely arrive in a good time range. Check to see if there’s any information on the schools’ application sites, too. Senior forms could probably be late as well.
Good luck!</p>

<p>thank goodness, i was mainly worried about transcripts and senior grades because that’s stuff i CAN’T control over the break - i can send my scores and do the app/essays fine by myself. the scores are also lenient materials too, i believe since they figure you can’t control electronics. thanks!</p>
