Have a question, does anyone know the answer?

<p>Hey, </p>

<p>This doesn't have anything to do about my chances but i was wondering if i could get a much needed answer to a question that i have. Anyways, my counselor sent out his part my application (i.e. the high school transcripts, recs, counselor eval) on November 27, 2004 to Wesleyan and Northwestern. Up till now, however, i have checked my application status on their websites, and they say they have not recieved any of this stuff. By the way, I'm an international applicant, so this stuff takes a while to get to the US. Anyways, I told my counselor-we checked the mail tracking records, and they said the package had arrived and been signed for; he told me to call the universities and follow up on this stuff. I ended up callin NW, but the only response I got was to wait till the end of the month-i figured id get the same response if i called Wesleyan. It is practically the end of the month, yet I still see a list of things that have not been "recieved." Does anyone have some advice on what to do? thanks....</p>

<p>First, I'd wait to the literal end of the month before worrying--some of these schools really like to ride the deadlines (much like a lot of students I know, heh). Plus, their input system for their website could be human-input as opposed to automatic, meaning that they have received your stuff, but just haven't recorded it as having been received. In other words, don't worry quite yet.</p>

<p>If the month expires without a word, then by all means, get on the phone and be persistent. Oftentimes the only way to resolve these kinds of things is to talk to a real person affiliated with the school. At the very least, they might be able to make you feel better.</p>
