When do I start panicking about my app status?

I’m posting something that I emailed to all of our applicants the other day - I think it helps clarify some things…

So here’s the deal regarding your Status Page:

The reason many of you are “incomplete” on your status page is because we do not enter any credentials (letters, scores, etc) into our system until you have applied - so EVERYONE is considered incomplete for a while, even after you submit your application online.

Now that you have applied, we will match up any credentials we may already have (as well as all the stuff arriving in the mail) with your submitted application. Your status online may remain INCOMPLETE for a week or more, but that is because it takes us a while to process all the paperwork, put all the pieces together and enter them into the computer system. Please be patient and continue checking your status online. If you need to contact us, please note that we may not be able to respond immediately.

As crazy as it sounds, we actually cannot read all your emails (even answer the phone right now!) as “all hands are on deck” to complete your applications… Trust me, we will notify you if your application is truly incomplete.
