Hello,
I worked really hard to submit my Dec. 1 applications as early as possible. Everything was going pretty well, except I was uncomfortably late on one. I sent one packet on November 22, and received confirmation that it was delivered by the 25th (USPS Priority). I checked in with the school, and found out that they did not receive it.
Has this happened to anyone else? Is there anything I can do?
I am mailing my Dec. 15th applications tomorrow, and am now pretty worried about the whole process. How do you mail your supporting documents (USPS, FedEx, UPS; overnight, 2-3 day)?
Also, I sent all my transcripts USPS priority (for schools that only require transcripts mailed) about three weeks ago, and received USPS confirmation of delivery from all 6. However, my application accounts do not reflect receipt of transcripts - so far, they appear to be missing. I am going to contact the schools, but before adding to their stress, I was curious if anyone else had similar experiences. How long it typically takes schools to record receipt of mailed items?
It just seems weird to me that no one has received anything I mailed. I copied and pasted the addresses from the websites, and double-checked the documents a million times. Please share your experiences!
