Counselor Screws Up Transcript

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application
1

<p>I recently told my counselor that I will be using score choice at some of the colleges I'm applying to. My transcript unofficially lists all the scores I've gotten on either the SAT or ACT. I asked her to take if off, so that they wouldn't be viewed at all my Admissions Officers. She agreed to do so.
Yesterday, I noticed that she already submitted all the forms (much earlier than she had done for other students), so I went to thank her and make sure she had taken off my scores. She informed me that she didn't get around to taking off the scores and submitted everything. I freaked out, and she said she was sorry and that there wasn't anything she can do.
I was not going to send my SAT to my super-reach schools. The SAT score I got is below the average. However, my ACT is much better, so I was going to send that. But now, my transcript lists ALL the scores I've ever gotten (starting off with a 1900 SAT I got around a year ago (Ack!!)). Though these scores aren't official, they are still viewed on the transcript.</p>

<p>Is there ANYTHING I can do? Is there some way for her to delete the submission she made and resend it with my updated transcript? She seemed to not care too much and I doubt she really knows HOW,if there is a way. I guess she didn't care too much as my SAT score is VERY good for my school, though below the 25%-75% mark for my reach schools. </p>

<p>Any help and responses much appreciated! I'm very stressed over this!</p>

<p>If my counselor is unable to do anything, would it be wiser to fax over the updated transcript without the scores to the college? Would they know to look at the faxed in transcript over the one attached to the School Report Form?</p>

<p>bump?</p>

<p>Sorry If that was too fast of a bump, from my last post, it’s already buried 6 pages in the Latest Posts >.></p>

<p>don’t worry about it. leave it alone. it’s not a big deal. trying to delete something will probably work against you.</p>

<p>Agreed. Don’t you think it would look a tad bit suspicious if the school received two transcripts, one from a counselor and one from a student, and the latter just happened to exclude a set of unfavorable test scores? And really, it shouldn’t matter. Schools will generally look at the highest scores available. My guess would be that the probable damage caused by trying to correct the issue would be greater than any potential benefit.</p>
