<p>i know it's 8 days past the postmark deadline, but i'm having second thoughts about not sending in an additional essay i wrote... would it be worth trying to send it by overnight mail? they'd get their hands on it monday, i guess.
i also live in a hurricane-affected area from which they'll consider mishaps on a case by case basis. would that make it any more feasible? one of my recs will be arriving their late, anyway.....</p>
<p>Call them. I sent something extra to my application and they told me it was okay, but that was only a couple of days after the deadline.</p>
