beebu,
i am a first-time applicant and plan to go for the spring 2011 semester. the offical deadline is 9/15/10 and i am wondering if i can request extension for the essay or gmat. is it too late now in term of applying for financial aid ? thanks!!

You can not ask for an extension on the application. However, if you get the rest of the application in you can tell them you are taking your GMAT (whether it's for the 1st or 2nd or 3rd time) after the deadline and give them the new date. You will then need to fax them your unofficial score sheet you get at the test center after you take your exam. However, they will not review your application until they receive your scores and if your app is not complete by the deadline you will not be guaranteed of an admissions decision by the 12/1 notification date. The application is due on 9/15, so spend the weeknd doing your essays and getting the rest of it together.
As far as financial aid goes, that's not a problem, fill out your FAFSA when you apply and if you get into Stern they will recieve it and take it from there. FYI, For part-time Fin Aid is just loans anyway.[/quote]
thanks, langone2009!! if i submit my application before the deadline9/15/10, and i take the GMAT at 9/30/10. will that be a problem? thanks!
