Demonstrated interest vs EA deadlines

Yes, these are my two rules of thumb for dealing with generally friendly but nonetheless bureaucratic institutions:

(1) Go to their website, and follow all relevant instructions;

(2) If you have any questions, give them a call (there is usually a contact listed), and ideally reference the website (“Hi, I am trying to accomplish X, your website said I should do Y, but I wasn’t sure if Y included Z.”).

The only wrinkle here is you might want to “CC” admissions to get credit for your efforts, but that’s simple enough.
