<p>So for amusement purposes (I suppose) I went back to my common ap and was looking over essays and the files...</p>
<p>I noticed that although my Stanford Fee was paid way back in December (showing as such) the Common AP shows Stanford actually downloaded the fee in March??</p>
<p>What does that imply-- ? Is that weird?</p>
<p>Anyone else?</p>
<p>It doesn’t imply anything. It just means they didn’t collect your fee until they reviewed your application. It’s not as if they only collect application fees from the people they accept. When did it come out of your account? Just now?</p>
<p>common ap shows it as paid in mid December (1 day after submitted the actual application)
and i asked my parents - it was paid in the subsequent months’s charge card invoice…</p>
<p>but it reads on common ap “downloaded payment” in the early part of march</p>
<p>Wonder if they are closing out my file :{</p>
<p>What does your commonap look like for stanford</p>
<p>Look at the paid date and the downloaded date-- two different things</p>
<p>I submitted on 12/31 and my payment hasn’t been downloaded</p>
<p>It means you have been rejected</p>
<p>people are posting same sorts of inquiries on the carnegie boards as well</p>
<p>don’t try to bother to figure out anything…just wait until the decision date…then you’ll know for sure</p>
<p>good luck</p>
<p>It doesn’t mean anything…some schools download them immediately even on Christmas when people are still submitting apps…
They want the money…so they’ll download it…</p>
