Hmm I don't know what's happening but both of my teachers sent their recommendations around the same time. One of recommendation was received a couple of weeks ago, but the other recommendation is stilll missing. I am really worried now.

Give them a bit more time. Finally on Friday the transcript and counselor report was shown as received, but the two teacher recommendations are still not recorded as in.

I am guessing that they are prioritizing the application and supplement processing, to be sure that everyone is sent an ID, then they are digging out through the pile of other submissions.

I would take them at their word when they say that anyone who is missing something will be notified soon and given the time to correct the situation. No alert from them about a missing item means no worries.

Save the worrying for whether you will receive an acceptance.

ok instead of worrying about the missing stuff, why isn't anyone worried that there are so many apps causing delays...many applications=many rejections =(

We could also believe (with no evidence) that applications are no higher than last year, but the team handling the paperwork is woefully understaffed.

i emailed my college counselor last night and she responded:

"I did call Cornell again and spoke to a real person. You (and two other applicants from *****) still show as incomplete in terms of our transcript, etc. But the woman said not to worry, it was probably there and just hadn't been entered in the computer. She reassured me that you would be read as ED and that if anything was missing once all the materials they had were entered, they would let you know and we could take care of it without any penalty to you. I'm going to call back next week."



so we are fine!

Everything my high school was supposed to have sent is still not entered into the system either. I called the admissions office yesterday and a lady just told me to be patient. I'm sure everything is fine.
