Application Checklist for RD Applicants

<p>My high school transcript, counselor report, and teacher evaluation are all still marked "not received," yet they were sent literally months ago (September-October). Anyone else have this problem?</p>

<p>I called the admissions office; they basically evaded my question and told me to keep waiting. (Kinda snappy: "Do you know how many applications we're going through??")</p>

<p>Mine were sent in November and still are not listed. Wait a few more weeks before you get nervous.</p>

<p>I think they are focusing more on Early Decision 2 applicants at the moment. I submitted
my common app. and the vassar supplement on Dec 31. My school forms were sent in the last week of December (by express mail). Vassar on-line application checklist showed that my application is complete on Jan 8th.</p>

<p>And I am an ED applicant. :)</p>

<p>By the way, I do feel that Vassar admission staff talk as if they are very stressed out. I called them 2-3 times and I remember once I had to say, "Are you listening?" Lol. But I guess they get tired of receiving so many phone calls and e-mail inquiries.</p>

<p>Yeah, the admissions person kinda sorta jumped down my throat -- I was actually relieved I didn't give my name.</p>

<p>Oh, and thanks, Disneyguy. Just wanted to check with other RD applicants. :)</p>

<p>Hey guys... did anyone who requested an interview for RD hear back about that yet? I submitted my app in mid-december, and I thought they would say something about it after the holidays but they haven't.
I guess they're really backlogged/trying to get through ED stuff first.... it took a while for all my checklist stuff to say "received" also.
I really think an interview would boost my chances though. Think it would be appropriate to contact them about scheduling one or should I just wait and see if they contact me?</p>

<p>I haven't heard about an interview, either, and I submitted it in late December. I'm curious, though -- what makes you think an interview would boost your chances so much? They're information and optional (I think).</p>

<p>I checked my application status today, and finally, everything reads "received." Hooray!</p>

<p>I have not yet been contacted about an interview, though.</p>

<p>Still 'not received' for me. Now I'm getting a bit worried.</p>

<p>Z, to answer your question, you're right, they are informational and optional. Perhaps I'm just being a bit paranoid. I recently e-mailed admissions about it, so hopefully I'll get one, but if not I suppose its not the end of the world. I was just kind of freaking out earlier haha. Can't get rid of those post-app jitters...</p>

<p>Maybe you should contact admissions about your app status? I'm sure they've received it and just haven't updated it yet</p>

<p>Don't worry about an interview. I applied for one for my EDII app and was never contacted in the least about one...I still was admitted.</p>

<p>They updated the checklist! I'm in the clear.</p>

<p>How do you view the checklist? I don't think I ever received an email about that.</p>

<p>The admissions office emailed me a username and pin a few weeks ago. Perhaps you could email them if you haven't received this?</p>

<p>Yea I think emailing would be a good idea. I got my PIN on time for Vassar, but I had to email Colby admissions to get my PIN a month after I submitted my supplement.</p>
