Merit Scholoarships.

<p>Question about merit scholarships. I turned in my app before the Dec. 1st priority deadline, but I forgot to have my counselor send in my transcript since I had gone to school overseas for one year. I got an email asking me to send it in around Dec. 26th and I had my counselor send it last week. However, the email from UW said to postmark it by the Jan. 15th deadline, which is the normal deadline for everyone not asking for a merit scholarship. Does this mean that I do not get to be considered for those scholarships?! Or is it just coincidental that their deadline for missing materials is the same as the regular deadline? Thanks to anyone who can clarify.</p>
