<p>S sent transcript and letters of rec last Saturday to MIT via USPS. The tracking shows they were received on Nov. 1, but nothing has been updated in MyMIT. Is there another way to check?</p>
<p>MyMIT doesn’t update immediately – it takes time, especially at this time of year, for letters and transcripts to be sorted by mail room staff and to make their way to application folders.</p>
<p>If the USPS tracking indicates that the items were delivered to MIT, there’s no need to worry. MyMIT will be updated when the items are sorted.</p>
<p>Thanks, molliebatmit. The USPS tracking sucks. It only says “processed at Boston” on 9/1 that does not mean MIT has got it.</p>
<p>There should be a further update to the USPS tracking with the actual delivery date, if you’re using the delivery confirmation service.</p>
<p>I used certified mail to send to two schools at the same time. The state university received and updated status online 3 days ago. However, USPS has not updated the tracking status as delivered neither (the same as the MIT mail). Sigh!</p>
