<p>I just found out tonight that one of my EA schools doesn't let you pay the app fee online-you have to send it in. The app deadline is Tuesday, and I don't think check will get there until a couple days after that. Will it hurt me?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>I doubt it... its usually the POSTMARK date, which means that you can send it up til tuesday and it doesn't matter as much when it actually gets there.</p>
<p>No a late check will not get you rejected. The worse thing that would happen is the college would tell you they have not received your fee. (Just mail it off tomorrow if you have already done so)</p>
<p>If it's a small school it wouldn't hurt to give them a call telling them a check is in the mail. If nothing else it shows interest. Also if it's in the middle of nowhere and the check might take longer to get there.</p>
