<p>ok... if my counselor hasn't sent out my secondary school report yet... and it won't be postmarked by the Jan. 1st deadline...am I doomed to rejection???</p>
<p>i don't know if they will look at it as being your problem beacuse it was your counseler that sent it out. but i am not sure . i am pretty sure that a school will not reject you soley because of this.</p>
<p>The general consensus on these boards is, your stuff (forms, essays, fees, etc) need to be in by Jan 1. Your supporting documents (secondary school report, teacher recs, transcripts, scores) can be submitted later; obviously the closer to the deadline the better, but don't worry about it. If any forms are missing, colleges will typically email you around February and give you another chance to get them in.</p>
