Procrastinators Unite!

<p>raiderade, please be quiet. Lol.</p>

<p>I think I might resort to reusing old essays. I’m wary of using my one I had for Georgetown EA since I was deferred…</p>

<p>My school said they wouldn’t send out transcripts or the secondary school report unless they had our apps printed out in a manila envelope by November 12th. They made an exception for applications due after January 15th and said they could be handed in by the first day back from winter break. I go to a really small private school so we have one counselor per like 20 students. Basically they can track us down all the time if need be.</p>

<p>It’s basically a showdown today. Gonna get as many of 9 applications out as possible. Send scores. All essays have been written, I only have a few random short answers left (what’s your favorite book, etc). And then get started on that 5 page term paper due monday. It never ends!!</p>

<p>Please confirm - so for the apps that have a deadline of 1/1 we have all day on new years day to get them in up until 11:59 PM? </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>^ misswhite</p>

<p>YESSSS you are correct :)</p>

<p>Pumping to meet Yale’s 12/31 deadline right now. Only a “Why Yale?” short answer and three 25 word quick takes left. I stole from my Chicago extended essay for the supplement and wrote a whole new common app essay (which everyone likes better than anything else I’ve worked for weeks on… typical) today. I think I’m gonna make it.</p>

<p>Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh</p>

<p>It feels so liberating to have all my college applications done (or nearly done, that is, if my payments get processed in time).</p>

<p>Advice on activity paragraph?</p>

<p>i’ll be submitting mine just after midnight tonight (my deadline is 1 jan). it’s good luck to submit it just after ringing in the new year. duh.</p>

<p>Someone want to spare some words on my essay?</p>

<p>WHOOOO I am not the only procrastinator. My parents were hassling me saying “Your the only kid still working on applications!” </p>

<p>Haha.
Well I have one 300 Words University of Maryland essay, and just need to shorten Cornell essay then I’m done. Hopefully before 11pm, I want to watch New Years Eve in NYC on TV tonight! :P</p>

<p>I’m panicking too though. There are two lines in my commonapp essay (That I cannot correct) that my father added (WHYYYY DAD WHYYY), that make no sense and are very vague. I wish I could correct them, but I can’t. I am sooo nerved by those two lines, they destroy the whole flow of my entire commonapp essay :(</p>

<p>anyone want to edit my essay? :D</p>

<p>I’ve got five more supplements to do: Northwestern, UVA, Princeton, Rice, and Emory.</p>

<p>Emory’s isn’t due until the 15th so I’m good there. Rice’s is due on the 2nd, so I have a little bit of time there. I don’t care much about Princeton’s supplement (the app will be free for me, so I figured why not apply?) so that shouldn’t be too stressful.</p>

<p>So really, I just have two apps due tomorrow and one due the next day. I also have a few e-mails, etc to send out regarding fee waiver requests, and I will be done with the deadline rush.</p>

<p>I got Yale and Harvard done today, and Dartmouth and several others done yesterday, so I’m feeling pretty good. haha</p>

<p>And Arthua I can look at your essay(s) if you want?</p>

<p>One annoying UVA engineering essay, one Princeton “short” answer, and one Princeton essay. </p>

<p>My friend just started his 19 applications a few hours ago.</p>

<p>@fallenangel9, northwestern allows you to send the supplement up to 2 weeks after its deadline. that’s what i’m planning on doing since i still have to finish Brown, Cornell, Penn, Tufts, Emory & Georgetown. I slacked off a bit too much.</p>

<p>@sunsetskies: Tufts isn’t due the 1st though is it? Well I think the application is, but I think theres time for the supplement.</p>

<p>Working on my last Johns Hopkins Supplement… Would anyone care to read it? I’d appreciate some feedback…</p>

<p>And if the deadline is January 1st, that means i still have till tomorrow to submitted it right?</p>

<p>@Arthua Tufts is due the 3rd but that’s in two days :(</p>
