<p>Thank you for your interest in UChicago! Here are some friendly reminders about the 2012 Regular Decision application process:</p>
<p>++ Technically, our application deadline is January 3rd at 11:59 CST. However, don't stress out about the "time stamp" on your application. UChicago downloads forms from the Common Application and sometimes these downloads occur after the deadline. Regardless of this timestamp, your application will not be considered "late."</p>
<p>++ We cannot confirm receipt of any individual application materials at this time. Rest assured that we want to complete and read every application. In early February, we will notify you via email if we are missing any of your required application materials. You'll then have ample time to submit additional documents without penalty.</p>
<p>++ It can take up to 48 hours to retrieve your UChicago Account information. You can access your account anytime by signing in with the box in the upper-right hand corner of the Admissions Website. Remember to save your email and password.</p>
<p>++ We will continue to accept supplemental materials in the Portfolio of your UChicago Account after the deadline. Please submit before February 1st and limit submissions to less than 10 photos, 10 minutes of audio/video, or 2 -5 pages of writing (creative or research abstract). More information on Supplemental Materials >></p>
<p>Enjoy the New Year, and keep in mind this quote from UChicago alum (and 2004 Nobel Prize recipient) Frank Wilczek:</p>
<p>"If you're not making mistakes, you're not working on hard enough problems."
