Counselor submitted all of my transcripts wrongly??

Applying to College
1

Hi all,

I am an international student from Malaysia. As such, my counselor is not familiar with the terms “Mid Year Report”, “Optional Report”, and “Final Report”. Because of that, she appears to have submitted all of my transcripts wrongly!

I have no idea what she has submitted for the Mid Year Report, for all I know, she might have submitted that correctly because I do have my first trimester results already. But how could she have submitted an Optional Report and a Final Report already?? I e-mailed Common App and they said that nothing can be done as she has submitted the Final Report already. All that’s left to do is for my counselor to e-mail each school personally and ask for further advise on how they would like her to amend the issue.

My question is, will this affect my admission chances? I mean, with so many applications, will I be seen unfavorably because of this mistake? I’m under a scholarship right now, and if I don’t get accepted to any universities for the Fall 2017 semester, this can have absolutely detrimental effects!

P/S: I applied for JHU for ED (rejected) and will apply to Duke, UMich, NYU, Minnesota Twin-Cities, Wisconsin-Madison, and BU for RD.

I’m sure the advisor will have a way to send in your final report another way. I wouldn’t worry about it.

Calm down. First of all, universities in the US are aware that submissions from interntional students might come with a few glitches. When the counselor can, it would be a good idea for the counselor to send an email with a brief clarification, using your name in the subject header. I am sure this can be resolved without a detrimental effect.
