As if Halloween isn't scary enough, the date of November 1st seems to be cursed. Since I started in this profession thirteen years ago, the weather patterns around the common early action deadline are mind blowing. From Halloween being canceled several years ago due to an ice storm, to hurricanes up the coast, to crazy tropical storm like conditions early this week, it seems like the world finds a way to add major stress to stressed out seniors. Without power, many students lost important days to work on their Common Application. In the last two days, my email account has been flooded with colleges and universities extending their early application deadlines to November 6th or later. If you are finding yourself in a pinch, and rushing to get everything in, double check the schools that you are applying to in order to see if their deadlines have been extended.
Please be mindful of the upcoming opportunities for your students....
