I got a phone call around 12 pacific time. And she told me that I was accepted. I must have been weirdo because I didn’t know what to say. All I did is just repeatedly say thank you.
I assume the red mark is a good sign.
You might still. When I got the email asking for an interview it was at 5:30pm EST last monday. I hate making assumptions like this but I think the red x is for when youre accepted and they need your spring grades to complete your transcript. Think positive buddy. You’ve made it this far. They wouldn’t need your spring grades if they were going to reject you
@OutboundTrain You’re right, I spoke with a woman in admissions who lightly hinted that it’s for accepted applicants who need to send a final transcript to demonstrate consistency in GPA. So you’re right, definitely a strong sign. I’d just love that explicit confirmation tonight if this is really the case.
Hey. I have no transfer credits but I do have the red X next to my high school transcript. Any thoughts?
Are you still in high school? It would make sense if that was the case–they’d be requesting your final hs transcript.
No i’m in the service
congrats to all who got in!!! I just finished my app by the March 1st deadline. Hopefully i can get decision by mid April.
just curious, how long did you guys write the scholarship essay? I just wrote about 500 words…
The scholarship essay isn’t the most important I don’t think. I imagine aid money will be mostly Fafsa based and perhaps based on other parts of your application including your personal statement. I didn’t want to write a sob story for mine. I just wanted to clearly and as objectively as possible communicate my current set of circumstances and how financial aid would be beneficial.
@OutboundTrain Did the person you spoke with mention anything about the red x mark and what it might mean?
@nickdrake
I just now have a red x next to one of my transcripts. Any info on it yet??
@MASailor9360 Is it for spring 2016 grades?
@nickdrake
Not spring. I took some online classes in September while I was serving in Japan. My transcripts were submitted before the Jan. 15th deadline though so idk why the x is there.
What I have on my management page is an awaiting status for official “community college” with spring 2016 grades. As I mentioned earlier, I did speak with someone in admissions who hinted that this is for accepted applicants to send in their final transcripts but did not explicitly confirm it. I’m just reluctant to get excited or draw conclusions until tomorrow. I’m just skeptical because I did not receive a call today.
I won’t worry about the x mark at all though it may be a good sign. As I mentioned earlier, I was rejected last year an i still have a X mark next to one of my transcript from the last year application management page. Just be patient, and I firmly believe all early action applicants will get email or call tomorrow. Good luck to all of us!!!
Same here. Hopefully were accepted, and they’re just double checking things.
I got the email like everyone else saying my application was complete, but my online college was notorious for dropping the ball on stuff, transcripts included. So that has me a little worried.
@Fooleh @yesorno0101 @OutboundTrain congrats! Good luck to the rest of the first batch applicants!
@OutboundTrain This may be a reach but do you think it’s possible they make the calls in alphabetical order? Again, just considering the possibility since my last name is very low in the alphabet.
Hey guys. I wish everyone who’s still waiting good luck and congratulate all who got admitted. I submitted my application late January so I’ll have to wait some more. 
same here.
