So I asked my counselor a month in advance to have my school report and stuff done by October 15th. She did not meet that deadline and told me she would get it done on November 1st. Thankfully this is just fine because the school that I applied to on October 15th doesn’t look at applications until December, and the other schools need it by November 1st.
We have a decent relationship with each other and I think the doesn’t despise me or anything. So it is probably not that.
I am just wondering for the Mid-Year and End-Year report what happens if she doesn’t get it in on time? When will they let me know what the deadline for that is?
There are very few colleges that are strict about the school side of the application components. There are a few schools that are very specific on their websites. Here is what Michigan says:
“The School Report must be returned with an official high school transcript and be received in our office by our deadline.”
So it does depend on the school, but most allow some leeway on the school components. Remember that colleges can’t possibly read all the applications in the first week they have them. Yours just won’t get read until all the components are there.
