My application was sent in 3 hours late...am I SCREWED?

<p>Hi! So, I'm kind of freaking out here. I applied for scholarships for the University of Southern California, which is my top school. My paid guidance counselor sent me back my doc with some extra last minute final revisions literally at 11:45 so I submitted it a few minutes before 12am. I got an email back confirming my submission, but it said that it was recieved at 2:55am. I didn't know that because of the common app, USC goes by Eastern time. Will my application still be considered?</p>

<p>Seems like you’d need the admissions office to answer that question. . .</p>

<p>Maybe give them a call in the morning to check/confirm that you’re app will be considered? Hopefully you’ll be alright!</p>

<p>Common App uses Eastern time, but USC is in the Pacific time zone.
Many schools located in California (i.e. Stanford) accept applications until 2:59am eastern time. I’m sure you are fine.</p>
