<p>ARE THEIR DEADLINES POSTMARKED? I'm an international applicant and I applied through paper application and sent them four days before the deadline via FedEx Express. When I tracked them online, it either said "At FedEx destination facility" or "Delivered" on either Jan 2 or Dec30. I haven't received any confirmation email though from any of the schools if they've received my applications. Does it take time for them to respond? I'm just a bit worried. :|</p>
<p>ok so i also applied to BU and Duke.
BU's dl was the 1st and duke's was the 2 (rumors circulating on the forum that the dl was pushed to the 4th)</p>
<p>anyways im also international. as long as you sent the snail mail before the dls and on the package the date is postmarked before the deadlines your fine.</p>
<p>BU and Duke took 2 days to confirm. but i applied online. expect an answer in the week or so. also Duke and BU both hav great online ressources which let u track what the admissions office has received or hasnt.
ull get your online id with the confirmation email.</p>
