what syllabus email are you guys talking about? I received a transferring credits email a while back but I submitted my syllabus as soon as I got into the portal and they approved it!
@ramily17 I think everyone is talking abt the recent one they just sent the transferring of credits one
Has anyones portal changed to 3 or 2 paragraphs yet?
Actually nvm it looks like from the Fall 2020 forum, they aren’t doing the paragraphs anymore? Not really sure tho…
@fran1234567 what do you mean by paragraphs? My college sent my transcript 6 days ago and it’s still not appearing in the portal- would you email them?
@nontradishbish according to previous forums 2 or 3 paragraphs indicates if they have received all of your stuff and that they are currently reviewing your application, everything would be completed on your application as well. But from the fall 2020 forum, it seems to be that they didn’t do that at all so it doesn’t seem to matter anymore at least I think so unless they decide to do it for us
same for me it says in the received that my “transcript - blank university” but in my required, it says “college transcript - blank university” I’m not sure what the difference is? Maybe the one in required is the one you’re supposed to send when you complete the semester if you get in? Anyone else having this issue too?
@fran1234567 yeah same, under admissions materials, my portal says “College transcript- blank university” and I’ve sent my electronic transcript twice now. I am still unsure if they have received it. Don’t really know what to do about that but I’m sure it’s fine…? Because under the Received section, it says they received my high school transcript and then another box that just says “transcript”, so I want to assume that’s just my college transcript.
@Joybox24 yeah I think it’s fine too? I would email but I feel like it’s just not an issue if I know they got the college transcript that I paid to send out and stuff. Kind of frustrating tho bc I would like everything on there to be as received since I did send them everything
Under financial aid I have “student income verification for federal financial aid” I emailed finaid the form and they said they got it but on the portal it says its a document that needs to be uploaded… Should I upload it anyway? or just trust that they got it and would let admissions know they did?
@Joybox24 @fran1234567 you guys should try calling the admissions office, they are pretty slow at responding to emails. The same thing happened to me with high school transcripts and a few other documents and when i called she said that they had received them but for some reason they didn’t link with my account and she had to put in a request. it was updated on my account after a few days!
@akusaka oh ok great thank you! So on your required all your stuff is complete?
@fran1234567 yes i believe so!
Same thing happened to me! I had to email because it was taking so long, now all of my documents are under complete.
I had the same problem with the transcript being under received and also required and I called like a week agoand they said it just hasn’t processed yet.
@kam2001 I am having the same problem
I called them today about it and they said it take 2 weeks to process. I sent my transcripts on Oct. 28
I mean if it’s happening to multiple people I’m sure they are aware of the problem now.
In case this might be helpful information to anyone, the “college transcript- blank university” icon under my Required page is now gone. Now, under my Received page, it says they have received “college transcript- blank university”, so I think if you sent BU your transcript electronically about two weeks ago, they should be receiving them by now.
My college transcript has appeared for a while now, it’s my high school transcripts that hasn’t updated yet. In my last post I accidentally said I was waiting for college transcripts, not hs- whoops. I hope we find out soon, I have to let another college know by Sunday of my decision.
Did anyone else get the email from BU about materials still needed and that they won’t review your application unless everything is in?
I sent my transcript in a while ago like late September when I applied. They have all of it but they won’t take it off my portal, I emailed them in hopes they will respond soon
