Depends.
If you get busted you could always play dumb. Or say you were told that on tls...
But then they'll look at TLS and see she's lying.

You could say "it's strongly recommended to submit within the first week of when apps open" or something more open-ended?

I strongly recommend submitting within the first week of when apps open.

^there it's true

My profs are all blissfully unaware human beings so I have no doubt I'd get away with it, but I wouldn't actually do it. No matter how tempted I am. I don't need that kind of bad karma following me around for the rest of my life. It's this forum I tell you! Making me contemplate immoral things...

Good choice.

Meh. I've learned that if you're genuinely not afraid of looking like a total moron, playing dumb can get you out of almost anything.

I'm going to pretend that the fee waiver email from Northwestern wasn't the result of me filling out a form on their website, but rather that they believe I would be a great candidate to their law school.

Yeah.

It would have been too too good if it was the prof I am waiting on, but alas.

Say you'll get it in within the week, wait 2 months.
