<p>Hey guys </p>
<p>I applied to RU (Pharm and CAS) I think the week of Thanksgiving. On the check status page, they have received my SATs and app. fee as of yesterday, but still no transcript. I did get receipt that my hs sent it though. Huh?? What should i do? </p>
<p>Poppa</p>
<p>Hmm... You're the third person I've heard of this happening to today. The only thing that I can think of is to say that Rutgers gets a lot of apps and some transcripts are bound to slip through the cracks. Maybe fax over another copy ASAP?</p>
<p>I applied to the college of Arts & Sciences & had the same problem. I called them and they told me it may take up to four weeks to post online that they have my transcript, because they have so many they need to sort now. So it may take a little time, but if it gets to be longer then 4 weeks you should call them.</p>
<p>same thing. i sent mine early november. applied to the pharm program. i have called numerous times- they say they probably have it. its just one huge paper trail because they have so many apps.</p>
<p>my question is- since the deadine was dec 1. and they highly reccomended pharm applicants to apply by dec 1, will we still have a chance?</p>
<p>i sure hope so.</p>
<p>Check now, its updated for 12/21/06</p>
<p>it has been over 6 weeks for mine and they still dont have it. my gc sent a second copy over after a month of them saying they dont have it.</p>
<p>i know that rutgers gets a lot of applications and everything, but quite frankly i find that ridiculous. especially if it hurts my chances.</p>
<p>Same thing with me, and I applied probably 2 weeks ago. It says they still need my SAT scores and transcripts, but they got my money (go figure).</p>
<p>What I'm going to do is send them out again, just to be safe.</p>
<p>i called them yesterday- they were really rude and i was on hold twice- the total being 300 minutes of being on hold. however after they searched for a while they told me they found it and would update the website and review my application as soon as possible.</p>
<p>so, while it is annoying,the best thing to do is to call and see what is going on.</p>
<p>I called adm several times inquiring about the status of application. Web site shows everything is there.
Finally, I got a human being to talk after several calls just to hear everything is available and you will hear decision by Feb '07.</p>
<p>Application is for PharmD and Biology Major.
STATS: SAT r/m/w = 690/680/790 GPA= 3.56 (4.0 scale) - in-state</p>
<p>I agree the response was bit rude too!</p>
<p>You were on hold for 5 hours? </p>
<p>That must have sucked.</p>
<p>wow god no, that was a typo on my part. 30 minutes, not 300.</p>
<p>300 is a bit unbelievable , dont you think? i wouldnt have had the patience for that</p>
<p>Ok. 30 minutes is a big differance, but still too long. </p>
<p>Sorry for my mistake.</p>
<p>no, it was my mistake for not rereading what i wrote before i posted it.</p>
<p>i did think 30 minutes was long. </p>
<p>i dont understand how a college can 'lose' a transcript, yet when you call them it magically appears. it is kind of sad that they need to be hounded to find the transcript.</p>
<p>I have no idea whats going on with mine. My school sent my SAT scores and transcripts together, and the Rutgers site says they only got the transcript, and still need the SAT scores. This is impossible since the SAT scores are on the back of the transcripts. </p>
<p>Hopefully the next update will fix this problem.</p>
<p>Integra -- I was under the impression that every college required 'official' SAT scores, something you order and have sent directly from College Board. Could it be that Rutgers has not received your official SAT's, and thus your application is incomplete?</p>
<p>Good Luck!</p>
<p>that is exactly what i was going to say- rutgers doesnt accept SAT scores sent by the school, they require that they arent sent by collegeboard directly. This really sucks for you because now you will have to pay the rush report ($25 i think) so they they will receive them quickly.</p>
<p>East<em>Coast</em>Mom and hybriddaisy, I did not send them through College Board, but rather through my school. Thank you for your help.<br>
I'll probably call them later and see what's wrong, or try to make my high school pay for it (if they will).</p>
<p>But thank you a lot for your help. I appreciate it.</p>
