Sending Graded Essay This Monday for EA?

<p>Hi All, first time poster here on CC. </p>

<p>I’ll be applying to Bard College EA, which as you all know, means the deadline is this Thursday. </p>

<p>I knew that I was going to submit a graded essay from junior year for my Common App supplement, but time passed by so fast and it’s already the weekend before the app is due. </p>

<p>I’m not sure how long postal mail takes from metropolitan New York City to Annandale-on-Hudson, but IF my essay were to not arrive at the admissions office by Thursday afternoon, would they still accept it? I assume yes, since I stated that I would be doing so on the CA website.</p>

<p>Thank you! Any help is greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>The campus was shut down for two days due to the storm, so maybe that helped in your favor. They may have given everyone a little extra time.</p>

<p>It takes about 2-3 days to get mail from NYC to Annandale. But I believe that deadlines are given not for the dates in which the materials get to the college but the date by which the materials must be post-marked.</p>
