<p>i submitted all my common app applications on the 28th. now when i look at the checklist it says submitted 12/28 for all the colleges and downloaded 12/29 for all except for northwestern (that is, it says submitted but nowhere does it say downloaded).
does anyone know what this means? i alreayd got an email saying they received the supplement, but thats it.</p>
<p>It just means that Northwestern hasn't yet bothered to download the Common App submissions. They'll get to it (it's usually done in batches and they know there will be a lot coming in now). </p>
<p>Same thing happened last year with one of my daughter's applications - took a week for one college to download her application.</p>
<p>thank you firefly</p>
<p>Or they may simply be on x-mas vacation until tomorrow.</p>
<p>I had the same thing happen this year to my Northwestern application. It takes them a little longer. Mine downloaded within a week.</p>
