I applied EDII the night of 1/1 (~9:10 in PT, so common app stamped ~12:10 ET) and received a confirmation of my application yesterday which said I had submitted the common app and other materials. Then today, I got this email (names are removed):

January 4, 2017

Dear ____,

We noticed that you began an application to Pomona College and uploaded a Music Supplement through SlideRoom, but have not yet submitted your application through the Common Application. Realizing that some students intend to apply but do not, for whatever reason, actually hit the “submit” button, we encourage you to double-check your application submissions through your Common App account.

If your application has not been electronically submitted or mailed to our office, and you still wish to complete the application process, you may still submit your application through the Common Application website. We will extend the application deadline until January 9 to enable you to do so.

Let us know if you have any questions or if we can be of any assistance.

Has anyone gotten this email? Should I be contacting them to see what’s going on?

Yup! I got that email even though I submitted my app already. They then sent another apologizing for the mishap. The weird thing is, though, is that I never actually uploaded a supplement. Did you actually upload a music supplement?

But I doubt it means anything this early on

@ap012199 I was actually going to upload a supplement and had a slideroom account opened and everything, but then I didn’t have time to put it together at the last minute. On the other hand, if I really have until January 9, I might actually want to submit one.

That’s the same exact thing that happened to me. I opened a SlideRoom to do a photography supplement, but I ended up not submitting it because I wanted to work on my writing supplements instead. I changed the “will you do SlideRoom” question to no so I can’t even access an account anymore. Can you?
