OK just so you know, my counselor is TERRIBLE. I didn’t even know there was such a thing as a priority deadline until I read something about it here. I thought you just sent your materials in by December 31st and then you were considered equally. I’m planning on applying to a number of the HYPSMC, will my chances be greatly affected by not submitting priority, and/or I won’t get the financial aid/scholarships I need? Crap this sucks.
<p>Only some schools have "priority deadlines"</p>
<p>You need to check with the specific schools. By the way, that's always been ultimately your responsibility, not your counselor's.</p>
