Question about Siena College Common App Application

<p>I applied to Siena College with the common application for the Albany Medical College program earlier this month. I was double checking some last minute things and was confused by the other requirements on the admissions website, namely the other essay or graded paper they are asking for. Here is the website: Freshman</a> Students </p>

<p>On Siena's online fast forward application the essay is listed as a separate component and is not included with the application form. I had thought that the Common application essay would take the place of this extra essay. I'm kinda confused and worried that my application will be considered late now and I may not be considered for the Albany Medical College program since the due date was on Dec 1st, if in fact this extra essay is needed.</p>

<p>Could someone please help me and clarify?
Thanks in advance, I really appreciate it.</p>
