Did anyone receive any confirmation email from Barnard after submitting the CommonApp???
You are so lucky! I submitted mine on the 8th and havent heard back from Barnard yet. On the website it says the tracking email takes 2 or 3 weeks if I submit near or on the 8th. Sigh, hopefully I will get mine asap!
Triforceofsara, all of my stuff has gone through...maybe you should talk to your guidance counselor just in case? I submitted mine October 27th and my recommendations and essays went through on November 1st. My SATs went through on November 8th, so they took a little longer if that's helpful.
Good luck!
Regarding the application tracker, it says all of my materials have been submitted except for a mid year report and a final transcript. What is a midyear report?
I just got an email from Barnard asking for my first quarter grades. The email stated that Barnard sent this to all ED applicants. I'm just wondering...how do we know when our first quarter grades go through? They don't have a "slot" on the App Tracker.
I was wondering the same thing when I sent my first quarter grades. They updated my transcript section with a new date when they received them.
