Also, if you are looking at a January 1st, or 5th deadline you need to make sure that you have made arrangements with your teachers who will be writing your recommendation letters and provided them with all of the forms so that they can write your letter before your deadline. Remember, your teachers will be off enjoying their holiday break too so they won't be around to write a last-minute recommendation letter for you if you just "forgot." And, in all sincerity, there is no such thing as a last-minute recommendation letter! Your teachers put in a lot of time, energy and effort to write a strong letter on your behalf. It is important to give them an adequate amount of time to successfully advocate for you as a student. (Your goal should be to give them at least 30 days which has already passed for January deadlines...)
And last but not least, don't forget that you need to complete a transcript release card so that we can submit your transcript before we leave for break so that everything is submitted by the January 1st deadline. Like you and your teachers, I will not be here during winter break to send a transcript for you so you must plan ahead. If you have any questions about your upcoming deadlines or where you stand in your application process, please stop by to see me.
