Jmlover- CC doesn’t allow links to a good article I have about all the problems coming in with the CA. If you want to learn about them I suggest you google “common app problems” to find it. Another thing to look at is the facebook page of the Common App. CA now has a “subscribe to learn of known problems” that you can do that will keep you updated each day on the state of problems and where CA is in terms of fixing them.

As far as submitting within the last five days I simply wouldn’t take a chance. For my DD I am making sure she submits by Oct. 10. I just want to leave some wiggle room to take care of any problems. We were at GA Tech for an event with admissions two weeks ago and they said that if you ran into problems to contact them to let them know which was their response to my question “can i fed ex a copy of her app if the system prevents us from submitting by the deadline?”

Gator- we did the same thing because it seems like every 3 days CA adds another question or revises a section. I really wish Tech had stayed with their own application. Based on the update email I received from Tech this past week and what was posted on the admission page I bet the admission staff wishes so too. Our regional tech rep will be here on the 20th so I will ask her for an update.

Just makes the process so much more stressful when it doesn’t have to be.
