@stanfordian2024 welcome to the gang! It took a few hours for me. Just within the day of applying. Which college did you apply to?
CALS! Hbu?
SHA. Good luck to all of us. Theyâll probably start reviewing transfer after Ivy Day. 
Finally got my College Report submitted to Cornell. The Dean filled it out himself and in the recommendation he put âFairly Stronglyâ, what a hero. Took my school a while, but I think Iâm all set now. Just a waiting game. Good luck to everyone!
Iâm happy for you. It arrived just in time for transfer app review (right after Ivy Day) yeah. My final transcript just arrived as well. It was 8 or 9 years ago since I went to college in the UK. I had some low grades but I explained that in commonapp. Hope itâs not a make or break.
Good luck to all of us.

Does College Report matter a lot? I donât know my school administrator at all and the person put âno basisâ. It seems to me a lot of other people are in the same spot
Your app is considered incomplete without a CR. So itâs a must for your whole app to be reviewed.
Matter or not, I guess it depends on each college? Everything you submitted will be considered. Some are more priortised. For example, The Hotel School values work experiences more than GPA/test scores.
FYI everyone, a good way to check the âmatterâ of each application component is through the Common Data Set here: Common Data Set - Institutional Research & Planning
It matters from the standpoint that it confirms youâre in good standing with your current school, that you could return to complete your studies there, and that there are no disciplinary issues. Itâs not really a recommendation so much as a confirmation document. Thatâs why itâs necessary.

Yea most students wont have any personal connection to the college dean unless theyâve faced disciplinary issues
I understand that, but itâs probably true that a students at a big state school (University of Michigan in my case) probably donât know their dean at all. I hope that they will overlook that lol
You arenât expected to know the Dean. In fact Iâm pretty sure those forms are filled out by other administrators most of the time. Deans are busy people. 
The âno basisâ shouldnât be a big deal right?
You guys read your report? My CC sent it directly to the institutions
I seen my report
never saw my college report, Common App had the school forward it directly for me
No problem itâs fine!
I wouldnât say itâs only âdisciplinary issuesâ. I had a personal connection with the Dean mainly because I had a concern about specific student in one of my classes and went to speak to him about it. After that, he was always friendly towards me, always saying hi and at times conversations with me for a minute or 2 in the hallway.
Ur right, prob a decent amount of students with special situations or something. How small was that school tho lol
