<p>A couple of the schools I applied to list that some of my app materials were received on Feb 2, Feb 3, and Feb 5. These items were most definitely mailed before Jan 15. Are the schools counting these materials as late??? I want to call them, but I'm afraid the adcoms are so busy that they'd be annoyed. Does anyone have an answer? I'm just scared that March 10th will roll around and I'll be told that I was a late applicant, OMG that would make me soooooo mad....</p>
<p>So if anyone has an answer, solution, etc...</p>
<p>Don't worry. Most school still accept application after Jan 15. As long as your materials are timestamped before Jan 15, you should be fine.
The day shown on the website is the day that admission officers processed your application. It takes quite a while to sort hundreds of letters out and put them into the file where they belong!</p>
