<p>So, does anyone have an answer to my dilemma. The Common Application uses the Eastern Timezone format and I live on the West Coast, where it is still 9 o’ clock. </p>
<p>Would they still accept my application, though, if I posted before the deadline in my timezone?</p>
<p>Most likely they will, but I think it depends on the school. I read somewhere that Stanford threw out applications that went after the deadline, but I also read that most colleges have a grace period.</p>
<p>nukedom, the deadline is 11:59 PM Eastern time, meaning it’s due at 8:59 PM for those of us on the west coast.
but who knows, maybe they’ll be nice.</p>
<p>Why do you guys wait till the last minute to apply, it obviously caused you a few minutes of worry and stress…</p>
<p>i paid my fee to the right school but the wrong school arrow turned green!
even though it says i paid the right one, the arrow is red and it does not say my application is fully submitted. whaaa??</p>
<p>In my defense, the Yale website only says that the Regular decision deadline is December 31 and not December 31 11:59 ET.</p>
<p>But yeah. I shouldn’t have waited until the last minute.</p>
<p>your all dumasses for waiting the last minute, would it have changed anything if u submitted it yesterday? the day before?</p>
<p>most likely not.</p>
<p>I don’t know. My application feels a couple hours stronger. Then again, Yale may not even get it. </p>
<p>Oh well. When life gives you lemons, you apply to Harvard.</p>
<p>I successfully submitted my Bates supplement, but it still says “Not Submitted” and has the red triangle.</p>
<p>However, on the receipt I printed out, it says the “Effective Payment Date” is 1/4/10, even though I submitted it on the 31st and got the confirmation email. Guess I’ll just wait and if nothing changes call the admissions office on Monday.</p>
<p>Anyone else have this problem with the date?</p>
<p>I got the exact same date for the “Effective Payment Date”. </p>
<p>I’m not too worried about the payment date, since everyone who submitted their application on the 31st would also have their payments by the same date.</p>
<p>I’m thinking we’re okay for that.</p>
<p>I’m more worried about my application date. I hope Yale is one of the institutions that recognize that students live in different time zones.</p>
<p>So does anyone know what’s going to happen to him? i mean to us?
I have the same problem.
I sent email to my college via “CONTACT US”
and explained my or our situation…
i am waiting for the answer but
since its holiday, i don’t think im gonna get the answer soon.</p>
<p>NYU’s deadline is tomorrow
and i don’t think my green arrow is going to show up by tomorrow
and i cannot submit my applications till the green thingy shows up…</p>
<p>So, I sent an email to the Common Application website, regarding my problem.</p>
<p>While I was browsing, though, I found an email from the Yale student website, which said the deadline was on January 1. </p>
<p>There may be hope for me [crosses out me] us yet!</p>
<p>But probably not…</p>
<p>So i’m having the same problem as you guys. I paid and print screened everything, BUT I NEVER RECIEVED ANY CONFIRMATION E-MAILS. ahhh.
I’m freaking out!</p>
<p>this only happened to a couple of my schools…so if we choose the fee waiver request(other), it’ll eventually show up as paid?</p>
<p>Yeah, it works. Yesterday, I used the fee waiver request in order to submit Upenn’s app. Today, when i checked, the payment section was updated, stating that I paid by credit card. USe the fee waiver for now and just wait until common app updates the information. Hope this calms anybody worrying.</p>
<p>When did it say you paid with the credit card? Like the time that you actually submitted it…or today when it processed?</p>
<p>It says the day it was submitted</p>
<p>I was on NetPay yesterday, and trying to submit payment for Brown and Williams College,but I noticed that it said the" effective payment date would be Jan 4". Then I can’t submit common app.(deadline Jan 1)
I tried click “mail check” then I success.</p>
<p>But the Williams “have not mail check”, so I don’t know how do I do?
Anybody can help me? thanks</p>
<p>@ standardgirl, go to fee waiver and choose other fee waiver and it should go through. I just did this.</p>
<p>Hi, I have the same problem but also my common app essay does not want to load. I am doomed for Harvard,Yale and Upenn. I hate this right now!!! What do I do, do I get rejected or not even considered???</p>
