<p>i just answered this in the other thread, but they only take paper applications if you don’t have internet access.</p>

<p>and if you need to submit a paper app, you would have to get it cleared by the Director of Admission:</p>

<p>

Regular Decision Applicants Must Apply Online by January 1</p>

<p>November 7, 2008</p>

<p>All applicants to Stanford must apply online via the Common Application Web site. Stanford only accepts paper applications from students who do not have access to the internet and such applications must be pre-approved in advance by the Director of Admission. All other applicants must apply using the online version of the Common Application. Schools and teachers may certainly submit their supporting credentials (Secondary School Reports, Teacher Evaluations, etc.) by paper and mail but all applicants must submit their Common Application and Stanford Supplement online. Paper applications submitted without prior approval will not be reviewed and all online applications must be submitted by Midnight, January 1 (Pacific Time). Extensions will not be granted for technical difficulties using the Common Application Web site, so applicants should submit their applications well in advance of the actual deadline.

And the Director of Admissions, as well as Stanford’s offices, will be closed until Jan 4th, which is after the admission deadlines. </p>

<p>So unless you got this approved in advance, it’s too late to apply to Stanford.</p>

<p>Why do you NEED to submit your common app by mail, if you don’t mind me asking?</p>
