so.......1 minute late

<p>Has anyone ever submitted an app like a minute late and had the school throw it out?</p>

<p>Yes. Me .</p>

<p>I think they automatically reject anyone who is exactly 1 minute late, but it’s cool if you sent it in like a week later. There’s just something about applying at 12:01 Jan 2 that bugs every admissions officer.</p>

<p>I know millions of people who were rejected because of this</p>

<p>is everyone being sarcastic here? i can’t tell… lol</p>

<p>Haha . .</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I submitted my Stanford app at 12:03 Dec 2 (art supp deadline) and a day later the admissions office sent me a picture of my app in the trash. IT WAS THE MOST TRAUMATIZING MOMENT OF MY LIFE. I still have nightmares about it. :(</p>

<p>You would hope we were all being sarcastic.</p>

<p>anagenesis - r u being serious?
why would admission office ever take time to make a pic of ur application in trash?</p>

<p>ditto lefleur.
btw, i thought it didn’t affect your application if you send it after dec.01,
it’s just that they won’t consider your art supplement.</p>

<p>anagenesis)) there is no way someone working at that kind of prestigious university would ever do that… I want to see that picture.</p>

<p>Why don’t you guys check out anagenesis’s other posts to find out exactly what happened.</p>

<p>Okay, the previous posters and I WERE ALL BEING SARCASTIC. I know we’re all a bundle of nerves but just relax and breathe okay? I was just trying to get some laughs to get you all to destress. :(</p>

<p>And for future reference, THERE IS A GRACE PERIOD AFTER THE DEADLINE. If I see another thread like this, I will strangle someone.</p>

<p>I lol’d at anagenesis. Thanks for the laugh :)</p>

<p>lol anagenesis you’re bound to see more of these. log off and sleep</p>
