@nerdking yes it’s completely normal. They have thousands of docs coming in a short period of time. It will take a while for them to connect it all to the accounts. The best thing to do, in my opinion, is to have patience and make sure everything is right on your part. I make sure I’ve done everything correctly by keeping email receipts that are time stamps. For example, I am an ED1 applicant and an Emory Scholars applicant and on my to do list my CSS profile for fin aid is not received yet and it’s past the deadline. I checked my email and looked at the time stamp the college board sent for when they sent the report and then emailed the office of fin aid that I have completed it and asked if they would like me to send it again. I usually don’t send an email because it gets resolved fairly quickly but it was financial aid so I didn’t take a chance.
Don’t worry, it’ll all get processed.
And a question, are you an ED1 applicant as well or RD with scholars?
If you are RD your docs might be processed later bc they are trying to push ED1 first (our decision is in 22 days)
