For all who have been following our Case of the Missing Transcript (see post #537 and #608), I have an update and a warning.
This morning, it was still a red X, so D29 submitted another question to Admissions via AIS. They responded and said that they have NOT received the transcript from the high school. Yep, the transcript that was requested on 8/5, which the counselor supposedly sent on 8/15, and the college supposedly downloaded on 8/16, somehow disappeared.
So, a whole 3 weeks completely wasted. (8 business days of counselor delays and 7 business days of believing the transcript actually made it over and trying to be patient as they process it.)
This evening, D29 uploaded the transcript PDF to “My Documents.” Done. Restart the clock.
There were concerns from the beginning. D got a new high school counselor. The high school is using new software – SchooLinks – and a new process for requesting transcripts. Potential for issues. Need to be alert.
Anyways, my warning … if anyone is using “College Application Manager” in SchooLinks and you see the screenshot below … don’t trust it. (And yes, “school report” is supposedly the transcript.) And if you already have your transcript (which you should, to do your SRAR), then just upload it instead.
