<p>Hey everyone,
There has been some conflicting info recently about the received by date, and I would like to let you know that I called WashU's finaid/schoalrship dept. and got an outgoing message - e.g. what everyone gets when they call now (not a random officer) - that said that all material had to be in by TUESDAY, January <strong><em>16th</em></strong>. So all of you stragglers out there (<em>ahem</em>, like me) who have completed apps but fear it's too late, there is still a winodow of overnight time.</p>
<p>They did that last year, too. I'm not sure why they don't just make their deadline the 16th in the first place and save people the unnecessary stress.</p>
<p>the extra day extension doesn't matter because the postal service is closed on the 15th too.</p>
<p>Gotta love FedEx and UPS. - the scholarship website has a courier address just for them.</p>
<p>oh, right. lo siento.</p>
