Admissions website

Has anyone checked their admissions status on the website lately?

My daughter checked hers and there is a check off list that lists all items needed and whether or not they were requested or received.
There is no check next to SAT/ACT scores. Not only were her scores sent directly from the collegeboard last spring and again after the Oct test - they are on her transcript.
They haven't requested them either.

Mom:
S applied and had a similar problem. He called admissions and it turned out that he failed to enter his SS# on the SAT exams. He gave admissions his SS and they pulled up his scores that were sent to SC by the college board from their data base and SC made the correction on the status part of their website. I think that may be what happened in your D's case, I would call admissions.

Hi Just A Mom,
Same thing happened to son last year. Scores were sent to S.C. before application had gotten to them. Called back and forth to College Board who said they would resend (for a fee of course). Guess they were sent electronically and S.C. didn't have a file to put them in yet, since application hadn't been checked in. They were quite backed up last year, lots of applications, so it took a bit to finally make sure all had been received. We received a card telling people not to call to check the status of things received, but it all worked out.

I will call admissions next week.
Her scores from prior tests were on her transcripts and I would think they would have those scores at least.
Funny thing is there is no check mark saying the SAT's were requested.
thanks.....

Thanks for your help!!

laxdad1953: Yep I called admissions and they were soooo nice. Her SAT's had not loaded because she had not given the college board her ss#.
Anyway - she uploaded them while I was on the phone and said her file was to be looked at this week!
They had not yet requested them because her file had not yet been looked at.
Keeping our fingers crossed!

I am glad I called - now there won't be a delay!
