Call. One of my kids sent arts supplements to colleges. Follow-up calls revealed that they didn’t make it into the kid’s file at several schools. Another kid discovered by calling that the top choice school had the admissions materials. portfolio and supplementary recommendations in two different files, as if there were two different applicants with the same name and birthdate. Since things like arts supplements, portfolios, research papers, and non-academic recommendations are generally not part of the required materials in an applicant’s file, you can be told that your file is complete without the extra stuff being there. I suspect that my kids’ admissions results would have been different without follow-up phone calls.
