<p>jeli: What sumzup said. He should be able to just fax or email another essay to take the place of the redundant one.</p>
<p>sumzup: From what I read in the commonapp.org FAQ, it sounds like if commonapp.org allowed you to submit, you made it. Every college defines its own “grace period.” They don’t make those known to you and me. But after the grace period, the Web site bounces your application and tells you it’s too late. So if you didn’t get bounced, it’s not random lenience; it’s part of the college’s plan. I’d imagine yours will be downloaded manually on Monday. Please post back and let us know your experience.</p>
