Is it too late to send in any supplementary materials?

<p>I applied EA and got deferred, and I kind of put MIT off for a while while working on my other apps. Now that I'm done with everything (and almost all of my interviews) it kind of dawned on me that I should be doing something about my MIT app.</p>

<p>I read the blogs and it seemed pretty vague as to whether or not these things would help or what exactly we should submit.</p>

<p>I'm just wondering, would it be too late to be thinking about this now or do I still have time to do something? Also, if anyone has any advice as to what exactly I can "do" at this point, that would be great as well. I was thinking about meeting with my college counselor, but I'm just worried that it's too late at this point.</p>

<p>Oh also, if anyone has an email address for MIT admissions that would be great as well.</p>

<p>If you are going to send something, I would send it absolutely this second -- selection committee is going to start very soon, and I don't believe supplemental materials sent after the beginning of selection are considered.</p>

<p>The admissions office email is <a href="mailto:admissions@mit.edu">admissions@mit.edu</a>.</p>

<p>AAaahH! ok thanks</p>

5

<p>Oh man, I just sent the MIT Admissions committee an email. Does this mean it will not be considered?</p>

6

<p>i'm worrying the same thing!</p>

7

<p>also if we want to update them, do we address it to our regional rep or mit admissions in general? if it's the former, then where can we find their info?</p>

<p>You should just address MIT admissions in general.</p>

<p>I'm not sure if they're starting selection this week, but it is very, very late to send an update. It may or may not be added to your file and considered.</p>

<p>Feb 14th is the deadline for them to receive stuff</p>

10

<p>oh really? do you have a link for that?</p>

11

<p>Can't link it, but a coach at MIT called me a few days ago and told to make sure that anything I plan to submit gets submitted before the 14th since it is the last day they will accept anything.</p>

12

<p>good call. thanks so much halbhalb!</p>

13

<p>Hmm what if I just finished my FAFSA say this Monday...? Will it still get accepted? My CSS Profile stuff's already reached there.</p>

<p>Guys guys if you're that worried about getting supplemental materials in you can e-mail them to me and I can print them out and take them over personally for the low, low, fee of $50/page. I accept PayPal, direct transfers, and nude photos as form of payment.</p>

<p>Guys don't PM me I was joking. :/</p>
