I am applying to a college with a deadline of October 15th, and my counselor was supposed to submit a school report with the Common Application. However, my high school hasn’t finished making the school report for this year’s senior class, so he just submitted last year’s instead. He told me that he would change that once the school report comes out. I already submitted my application before realizing this, can my counselor switch the document even after I submitted it, if it’s before the deadline?
Yes, your counselor will be able to send an updated school report to the colleges you applied to for the 10/15 deadline. Colleges realize that high schools have different timelines for completing documents, and don’t penalize students if the high school sends updated documents after the student application deadline.
