USC says it hasn't received my supplement!

I called admissions yesterday, and the person that answered said that in many cases, it’s likely just a delay in processing. She told me to wait a few more days and see if the USConnect website updates to reflect that the supplement from the Common App had been received.

I checked back again today, and it had indeed updated to say “We have received your Common Application and your writing supplement, but we are still missing materials from you”. So I went to the section that tells you what the missing materials are, and the writing supplement was still listed-- which is obviously kind of weird, but I figured at this point that the website is just really glitchy.

I put all of my short response answers and essays on one PDF file and uploaded it just to be safe. Hopefully, that takes care of things.
