<p>I've applied ED to Swats just by its deadline, and received the checklist yesterday. It says that I still lack First Quarter Grades and Mid Term Report. I'm international and I do not think our school has First Quarter Grades...? I've sent an email already, but haven't gotten the reply yet. Is this going to affect my application??</p>
<p>If you gave them at least a few business days to respond to your e-mail, I would follow up, preferably by calling (but you could send another e-mail if you prefer). Many schools in the US only have official grades every semester (including mine when I applied, although I didn’t apply ED), so it won’t negatively affect your application.</p>
