i'm EDing and i sent in my application a bit late (11/01, it's allowed i checked) it says "downloaded 11/02/2009" in common app now and i think i'm supposed to get like an ID or something so i can check the status...
how long does it take for them to send me an email ????
Im not sure if NYU gives you an ID. I submitted my application for ED today (11/02) and I didn't get anything. NYU supposedly sends u an email by Nov 15 telling u if they have all the parts of your application. They apparently get ultra swamped from the sheer number of applications they receive.
If I remember correctly from my RD admissions process last year, I got an N number a week or so after they downloaded my app. However, there's no online status check--they give it to you to make it easy for you to deal with admissions. And if you get in, that number basically becomes your lifeline, along with your NetID.
D application was downloaded from the common app by NYU on 10/31 and she received her N number via email today..so I would say its about a 4 day turnaround before you hear from them..Good Luck!
