上周美国东北部暴雪导致美国很多家庭在一个不受欢迎的关键的时间(美国大学提前申请截止日期十一月一日)停电。很多美国东北部的大学推迟了提前申请的截止日期,一般是延期三天。维拉诺瓦大学为了方便学生,将截止日期改为11月4日。包括波士顿学院、哥伦比亚大学、康奈尔大学、达特茅斯学院、佛蒙特大学在内的76所学院和大学推迟了11月1日的美国大学申请截止日期。不在大雪影响范围内的部分学校也推迟了申请截止日期,包括芝加哥大学和波莫纳学院。

美国网申系统Common Application 也发表了一份声明,鼓励支持采用common app系统的学校能够考虑受东北部暴雪影响的学生。
当然,最保险的办法还是要提前提交你的网申,不要到了最后再提交,因为可能会发生意外情况,这时候你会更加着急。所以遵从中国的老话,凡事豫则立,不豫则废。提前做好准备。不要等到最后再匆匆行动。
The freak snowstorm that swept the Northeast last weekend lt many families without electricity at a particularly inconvenient time — just as early applications were due.
An untold number of high school students across the region were forced to scramble to submit their application materials by Nov. 1, the deadline at dozens of well-known colleges, camping out in coffee shops and other homes in search of working outlets and wireless Internet.
Victoria Ngo of Hackensack, N.J., was among them. Ms. Ngo was hoping to apply early admission to Villanova University, but she was unable to access her personal statement, which was not yet complete and which was stored on her laptop, its battery power depleted.
“I actually had a nervous breakdown,” she said. Days bore her deadline, Ms. Ngo had panicked thoughts of writing her essay longhand by candlelight; she wound up heading to her cousin’s house in New Milford, which had electricity.
As it was, Villanova (维拉诺瓦大学(Villanova University),是位于美国宾夕法尼亚州费城西北郊 Radnor 镇的一所私立大学)wound up extending its early action deadline to Nov. 4, and it was in good company. Boston College, Boston University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College and the University of Vermont were among at least 76 colleges and universities that pushed back their Nov. 1 deadlines, according to the National Association for College Admission Counseling. The average extension was three days.
Even some schools outside of the region sympathetically extended their due dates, including the University of Chicago and Pomona College in California.
The board of directors of the Common Application issued a statement on Monday encouraging participating schools to “be sensitive to the adverse conditions affecting schools and students in the northeast.”
But postponed deadlines have not necessarily lessened student stress, as tens of thousands of homes from New Jersey to Massachusetts remain without electricity.
Some students took to Twitter this week to vent. “Still w/o power,” @wowfunhappy wrote on Tuesday. “I’m trying to use Dad’s laptop to work on my college app at Starbucks. I hate this laptop. Why won’t copy & paste work?”
“My last college app needs to be in,” wrote @ashhleystephens. “If the power doesn’t come back I’ll cry.”
For other students, the Northeaster reinforced the value of their early preparation. Judy Fairfull, head guidance counselor at Doherty Memorial High School in Worcester, Mass., said that while the storm resulted in several snow days this week, the students she advises were not affected.
“We submitted our applications early, about a week back,” she said. “We learned our lesson from the ice storm three years ago: Don’t wait until the last minute.”
