1. I am aiming for Harvard, University of Chicago and Stanford. May I have the exception for the offers?
2. Since our school released its fall term grade on the first week ofJan, I could not upload my scanned transcript reflecting my fall term grade. So, I just reported my fall term grades after the submission. Will schools such as Harvard, Yale and University of Chicago consider my fall term grades during the admission process?
3. For Stanford University, I sent official transcripts without fall term grades in advance in November just in case where I would not able to send by the deadline. However, one week before the deadline I was able to send official transcripts reflecting fall term grades. So, I sent another set of transcripts. Does the school accept additional transcript?
Thank you in advance.
