<p>Did anyone not apply before Dec 15? I’m sending mine today.</p>
<p>BUMP - will this hurt me?</p>
<p>the only reason they want it early is to try to clear out the big rush of papers they undoubtedly get. they won't say like "OMG he applied on dec 31! he must not take us seriously. deny". the worst that can happen is that they call u and say that they're missing part of ur file.</p>
<p>as long as you send it by jan. 1st, you're fine</p>
