Senior Reminder

I know that I have blogged about this before. I also sent an email to all of my senior students and parents to make sure you were aware. But please, do not forget... I will be out of town this weekend and will not be at school on Friday. So, if you are a senior who is applying to a college with a November 1st deadline, please be sure that you have invited me on Common App and submitted your transcript request form off the counselor website so that I have time to get all of my parts completed and turned in ahead of your deadline. Also, if you need me to look over any parts of your application, remember that this will also have to happen before the end of the day on Thursday.

I know that this timing isn't ideal with your November 1st deadlines, but I am current on all of the college applications that have been submitted to me already so we can do this! See me if you have any questions/ concerns. Also, every year I get the question about November 1st deadlines - if that is your deadline it means that your application must be turned in by 11:59pm Eastern Time. But I strongly encourage you NOT to procrastinate until the last possible second. Several years ago Common App experienced so much traffic in the final hour of November 1st that it had problems with applications getting submitted successfully... you don't want that to happen to you!
