<p>I would like to spend a couple more days on my "Why Swarthmore" if possible. Does the January 2nd deadline apply to all parts of the application, including the supplement, or just the "Common App" itself.. Please help, thanks!! I feel ill and I really want to go to sleep more than do an essay.</p>
<p>I believe the supplement is due today as well. You could check the Swarthmore admissions website, but I would get it submitted today if I were you.</p>
<p>The deadline basically means make sure to get your common app and your supplement in.</p>
<p>If your teacher recs or school report or SATs or something aren't in exactly today, that's okay: but your actual application (including the supplement) really needs to be in.</p>
<p>Okay. Thanks. x)</p>
<p>Good luck though. :]</p>
<p>Hm, Swarthmore sent me a little postcard a while ago saying they moved their deadline.</p>
<p>I can't find it to tell you what day they said but my friend got one also.</p>
<p>Stamps.com. You can go ahead and print out an envelope and it will have a postmark date of today on it. Then just mail in the supplement when you're finished with it. :)</p>
<p>The Common App still has the deadline as today.</p>
<p>only some people get the deadline extension....</p>
<p>Although after having worked in that admissions office, I am sure they would accept a supplement that was a few days late.</p>
