Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Pennsylvania

<p>I just got my little blue postcard yesterday, confirming the receipt of my application (if you didn’t get yours yet, don’t worry - I live close to the school). It reminds us that we are responsible for making sure all testing, transcripts etc. are sent to them, and says that ED will receive a follow-up postcard or email by mid-November if any documents are still missing. (Mid February for RD and mid-May for Transfer applicants).</p>

<p>Also says - financial aid applicants must file a PROFILE with College Scholarship Service, and FAFSA with the Federal Government. </p>

<p>Finally, it reminds you to include your full name, date of birth and last four digits of SS # on any supplemental materials you send.</p>

<p>Hey, I sent supplemental material but I didn't know that we had to include the SSN. I just had my full name, date of birth and address.</p>

<p>Do you guys think that's okay?</p>

11

<p>If you've already sent it, I'm sure they will figure it out. Just makes it easier for them in most cases, and in case of similar names etc.</p>

12

<p>Even if we submit online we should get this blue postcard?</p>

13

<p>Yes, I got a postcard after submitting Part 1 online.</p>

14

<p>what do you guys mean by the "supplemental materials"?</p>

<p>Anything at all that you may wish to send separately - an activities list, an additional recommendation, letter etc. Some people submit photos of artwork etc.
The only thing I sent separately was the signature form for ED together with a photograph.</p>
