<p>so I submitted my application online (common app + supplement) and printed out the signature page that needed to be signed and mailed. I signed it, my mom signed it, I stuffed it in an envelope, and left it on the counter to be mailed the next day. Mind you, this was the week between Xmas and New Years.</p>
<p>today is January 8th, and upon rummaging through random papers on the counter....I find my envelope for Emory....still at my house.....oh no!</p>
<p>Do you think if I mail it now, they'll still accept it and process my application? Most colleges don't even start reviewing until February, and if you are missing things they tell you......so it shouldn't be too late to mail it, right?</p>
<p>Emory might start a lot earlier for ED II applicants, since they start sending out decisions by mid Feb. But I don't think they would mind getting late mail. All it says on the website is that Emory doesn't acknowledge your app as completed until they receive all the required materials. Definitely mail that bad boy the first thing tomorrow. I wouldn't mind using express mail</p>
<p>i thought emory mailed eary decision II decision february 1?</p>
<p>noday42, if you have applied ED II, then there's a bit more urgency since the notification date for decisions is Feb. 1; however, if you have applied RD, it's less urgent to get the Signature Form sent in post haste.</p>
<p>At any rate, I'd give the Emory Admission Office (404-727-6036) a call promptly and ask for an Admissions Rep. Tell him/her about your situation, and they will probably want to note on your file that the Signature Form is enroute. If you have applied ED II, you may want to let them know that you can FedEx it overnight to them -- then follow through.</p>
<p>Calling would be a good idea</p>
<p>i think you're right blondy</p>
<p>I had the same problem when I applied for Emory Scholars (I didn't even realize we had to send in a signature page until two weeks after the app was due), and I didn't have a problem sending it in late. Bear in mind that the goal of the admissions office is to craft the best freshman class possible--not to punish applicants for minor mistakes.</p>
