How close to the end...
I did this for Columbia since I'm interviewing at schools in NY and NJ during the same week, however, the response I got was pretty neutral. Basically said if we decide to grant you an interview we'll take this under consideration. I don't think it necessarily helps but if it makes you feel better do it since I don't think it hurts.
I'm sure you have taken care of this already, but I guarantee, as a former interviewer, that this will not impact you application AT ALL

Doesn't say where to send it, though. I'd imagine the main admissions email.
Ah... I was looking much earlier. Thank you!! It sounds like it's not really worth it?
They want you to upload your request in PDF form on the "Update" tab. Then when they see it they'll send you a polite email that says they will take the date into account if you're offered an interview. No evidence that it does anything, but they are receptive to having the info on file. I say send it and forget about it.
I remember reading that they are reviewed together with the 4-year program.
I called the admissions office a while ago and spoke with one of the deans of the 3 year program. She said that the 3 year program is reviewed completely separate from the 4 year. So if you are a PhD applying to the 3 year program, you are only competing against other PhDs.
There's no set timeframe. I've been complete since mid-July. People before me and after me have gotten IIs, and will continue to do so throughout the cycle. Heck, I may even get one eventually. Trying to outguess the adcoms is only going to drive you mad!
I'd try and ask. Many of us got Columbia's secondary pre-verification.
Define 'low'...
I didn't get any such thing 🙁
