<p>hey everyone i have an urgent question! So on the chancellors scholarship online application page it says:</p>

<p>Your online application is due three weeks from the date printed atop the letter you received informing you of your candidacy for the scholarship unless the letter instructions state a different deadline.</p>

<p>Your letters of recommendation* and transcript* may arrive after this deadline without penalty, however we will not be able to process your application until it is complete.</p>

<p>I received my letter Dec. 10th 2012 and three weeks later would have been Dec. 31 2012. but on the letter it says:
Completed applications must be submitted and postmarked no later than Jan. 14 2013.</p>

<p>So I planned on submitting my essays online by Jan. 14th and haven’t started them yet. Is that alright? Or was I supposed to have them in yesterday in which case I must franticly write them today and get them in a day late.</p>

<p>^^sounds like you have until 1/14…my son was confused by this too…letter said 3 weeks from receipt, but website said 3 weeks from date on letter…he went with the former because he had already slated that time to work on other deadlines.</p>

<p>I called on the phone ages ago and they said the 3 week thing wasn’t really a hard deadline. You should be fine. :)</p>
