<p>so 6 of my application fees are late.</p>
<p>stanford
wash u
harvard
vanderbilt
duke
rice</p>
<p>as long as i send the checks by friday, do you think it will be ok??
its not that im lazy or just forgot, but my family literally could not pay until now. should i send a letter with the check explaining why its late?</p>
<p>i dont see how a letter would not hurt...
def send the letter, ASAP.</p>
<p>Send a letter explaining why your fees are late. You didn't try using a fee waiver (I know it's none of my business, but I couldn't help asking)? I think you should be fine. Call them tomorrow and friday just to make sure you're ok though.</p>
<p>i couldnt use a fee wavier because normally those are only for families who make under 20K. we arent that low, just bad times right now.</p>
<p>Sorry to hear about that. I doubt these colleges will hold it against you. Stanford should have processed a lot of their apps by now so it may be a problem. I recomend calling each school to see if they will still take your application before you waste money on postage.</p>
<p>many schools are extending their deadlines for applications due to weather....I wouldn't worry, send them in NOW, becuase it will take a bit for the mail to process, etc</p>
