Late Application? Ack! What do I do?

Applying to College
1

<p>I brilliantly didn't realize until last night that the post office isn't open on Sunday. I've been so caught up with finishing projects and essays and studying for exams (I have midterms all next week) that I have neglected to think about college stuff. What should I do (I'm kind of panicing right now)? </p>

<p>The application in question is only for one school (Reed) and I already sent the common app online back at the end of December. It's the supplement material (which isn't available to send online) that I am worrying about.</p>

<p>I'm sure it'll be fine. It's a hippie school, they won't care :)</p>

<p>I wouldn't worry too much but you could Fed Ex or send Express Mail tomorrow. This way it will get there before many other last minute filers.</p>

<p>If you're really worried, send it by UPS Express Plus. It's pricey, but they work even on weekends. <a href="http://www.ups.com/content/gb/en/resources/select/sending/services/express_plus.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.ups.com/content/gb/en/resources/select/sending/services/express_plus.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Reed's worth it. It's my EDII school. :P</p>

<p>Thanks. You guys made me feel better. :D</p>

<p>I'll probably just send it out on Tuesday then. UPS Express Plus is waaaay too expensive, but thanks anyways.</p>

<p>To be honest, most schools will allow late applications because for the next two weeks or so, their mail-processing area is going to be overloaded. They wont be able to tell what is on time and what is late.</p>
