Is it compulsory to send the transcripts before deadline?would they consider my application even if i delayed submitted transcripts

Just got an email saying that USC has extended the round 2 deadline to Jan 10 because candidates requested an extension. This email was sent out at midnight on Jan 5. That seems bizarre to me, and unfair to those that may have rushed to submit by Jan 5, is this common? Who asks the grad school they're applying to for an extension, and then gets it GRANTED??

This is not common, particularly the reason they cited. We have seen schools extending deadlines on rare occasions such as natural calamities but extending deadline on candidates' requests is something we never heard before. I checked USC's website and it still shows old deadline. Hope they emailed everyone who is submitting app in R2.
