Everything is showing up as received except for my two essays.

I assumed that they would be sent electronically as part of the application submission. Is this the case, or did I stupidly miss something about printing and mailing it to them?

The prompt said we dun have to mail them separately. I just submitted my essay today and got a message on the review application page saying my experience essay and PS have been emailed to admission office. I think they just need time to update our status online.😉

Did you get an email from them today about needing to finishing your application soon for early admissions?
 
I just emailed them about this same thing this morning and they said that documents are updated manually. They said to just be patient because they are being inundated with documents as more people are turning in their applications.
About the emails telling you to complete your application, they do that from time to time. I think I received at least 2 email reminders about my application even before the fall semester ended. Just a reminder, though, Jan 7th is the deadline for the ED.
 
Have you tried setting up your eRaider account, as the last email suggested?

I tried to set it up, but it says that I need an activation code. For the heck of it, I tried "forgot user name", and it gave me one as though an account were set up (first initial + last name). I then tried to retrieve the password, but it won't work because I don't have my Techsis PIN. Apparently that PIN isn't the same as the one for pharmacy school application.

Oh man, I totally forgot about that! I don't even know if I still remember my username and password. I set it up months ago.

What did you do to get it set up? Did you have to contact the help desk?

Did you get an activation code from them? It should be in the email they sent you to tell you that you need to set up an eraider account. they also provided link for the eraider site and then the site will walk you through it.

Here's that email that they sent me in mid-september:

You have been assigned an eRaider account that will be utilized to access the services that you will need at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. This does not constitute admission or acceptance to any program at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. eRaider and email accounts are used for official communication and to access services needed to complete an ongoing application process.If at some future date you are placed on the alternate list or have accepted a place in the upcoming class, it is important to maintain an active eRaider account. In order to use your eRaider account you must go through the eRaider account activation process. During activation of your account you will create your official Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center email account. All official communications between Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and you will utilize this account. Once you have activated your eRaider you will receive another email detailing how to access your Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center email account.
Please go to https://eraider.ttuhsc.edu and click on "Activate Account" to begin the process of activating your eRaider account. Your eRaider username and activation code for activating your eRaider account are listed below. Instructions are included on each step of the process.


BTW, I got this email from them after I started my online application.
 
I guess that I'll have to contact them since I never received such an email.
