<p>I just got an email from the admission committe about missing materials. Did anyone get it?</p>
<p>Does it mean something was lost in the admission process? Is the frequent?</p>
<p>It is not usually frequent. They sent me one concerning a recommendation but after I called the office, they told me they had just got it and the mail I got was from a week ago.</p>
<p>I would definitely call the office REPEATEDLY as sometimes the first person may know nothing while the second will tell you what's going on.</p>
<p>I would especially call in your case since you are a transfer and they emailed you instead of mailed.</p>
<p>thanks for the advice--i sent my reply as quickly as possible. im one of those people who are glued to computers and reply to emails within 2 minutes--he thanked me for that too!! (i think that was the first positive comment i got about my habit)</p>
<p>sorry about the randomness of my reply! :) :)</p>
<p>email instead of mail...interesting.</p>
<p>but better not get my hopes up or the fall will be very , very devestating....march/april</p>
<p>on a second thought...i'll just dream and enjoy my short-lived happiness.</p>
<p>why does it take at least a week to update info on "Where Am I..." application process?</p>
<p>acceptedtocollegealready, you working?</p>
<p>To tell you the truth I half-ass at my job. Think of Office Space. I kind of just read essays and shift through papers so the staff thinks I'm working and then I go watch TV and eat food and do my own homework. </p>
<p>Also, the increase in apps is really insane. Just one extra application can mean 20 different papers over a span of a month. Multipy that by 3,000-4,000 extra apps and you get a HUGE mix of papers coming in. </p>
<p>The increased app numbers show 20% increase in FINISHED applications. Do not forget there are many UNFINISHED applications. Some people just randomly send in things and then stop applying. </p>
<p>A week is pretty good considered to other colleges. Also keep in mind the mail is sometimes slow as we recently got a huge snowstorm in Pittsburgh and whenever that happens you can expect long-distance mail to come in a day or two late.</p>
<p>does the admission office send out letters to confirm they received the missing doc?</p>
