<p>So my Cornell and Rochester applications are due on the 1st and 2nd (I think) of January, but my teacher might not be able to submit my rec until after the due date. Is that okay? Are all the school forms and stuff due on the same date the application is due? I'm confused. =( Please help.</p>
<p>For most colleges, that’s ok… your application has to be in by the due date, but school forms (which are, after all, out of your control) can follow within a reasonable timeframe. Contact the college if in doubt. But get them in as close to the deadline as possible, because the admissions committee won’t review your application until your file is complete.</p>
<p>Cornell’s deadline is January 2; Rochester’s is January 1. Good luck!</p>
<p>Thanks a bunch!</p>
