Stanford-deadline extended. Really.

T26E4, no need to bash. If you read the late application thread people talked about how Stanford wouldn’t consider 1000 apps that were submitted after the deadline last year. “Late” could mean a little time or more, and it made it sound like Stanford is really strict with these things.

SDonCC isn’t saying they mistreat their applicants, just that they think it’s unfair to those who rushed at the last second to submit thinking it was the final deadline when in actuality they could have had another day or two. Although then, those that submitted that late can only blame themselves for procrastinating but I can see why they would be angry that Stanford is giving another chance to those that are even bigger procrastinators than they are.
