I applied to Macalester January 13th and still have not received any login or account information. Has anyone received anything?
Yep, I got my portal link a day or so after submitting the common app. Be sure to check your spam folder.
My daughter did not get the usual email (checked spam, not there), but received a paper letter this week referencing “the email we sent.” The paper letter had the portal URL, and she was able to reset the password from there. I think they had a glitch with the notification emails.
There is a 24-hour delay for the delivery of the login credentials email when applications are started in the Common App and not through our Part 1. Unfortunately, sometimes notification emails will bounce or get caught in a filter. It’s hard to tell why you didn’t receive the email without more information. Feel free to contact me directly with your contact information if you have any questions about your login or if you continue to not receive emails.
Your feedback is appreciated! Thanks, all.
