Caltech Portal Issues

Hi everyone,

I submitted my Caltech Application on Common App yesterday but I did not get an email with my Caltech portal. I am hoping to submit a research paper on the portal so does anyone have any suggestions/help/advice? I emailed Caltech and called them already but I guess they are not picking up cause they do not work on Saturdays or Sundays

It usually takes them a couple of days to process your application before you have access to your portal. I only got access to my portal two days after I submitted through CommonApp. Anyways, don’t fret about it. :smiley:

Edit: Grammar

yeah I second @HankGreen, I got access to mine the day after I submitted. You really shouldn’t worry unless several days have gone by with no email.

I also haven’t gotten the link to the portal yet, and I’m trying to submit a research supplement…
i’m just worried that the deadline to turn in the supplement is also today

For those who got link to portal, do they also ask for mentor recommendation like MIT?

Nope.

It took me like 4 days to get an email with a link to my portal
