I submitted my Brown application on Dec. 30th and still haven’t gotten an email from Brown saying they have received my application. When should I contact the admissions office?
It takes awhile. I applied ED on October 31, 2015 and received my first email from Admissions on November 10. Some people even said it was longer for them. Some it took 2 weeks or more. Don’t worry.
Thank you! It is the only confirmation email I am waiting for so it was giving me stress!
@stahboy Yes, it took that long for the confirmation email.
"Dear _______,
We are delighted that you applied to Brown! This email contains important information and instructions on how to activate your Brown Account. We are including your BrownID and activation instructions below…"
ya i havent gotten mine either, dont worry man
I haven’t gotten mine either and I had everything submitted by December 25th
People,
From the top of the front page of the Brown Admissions site:
News & Announcements
Office of College Admission CLOSED Over Holiday Break
The Office of College Admission will be closing Tuesday, December 23 at 5:00 p.m. and reopening Monday, January 5, 2015 at 9:00 a.m. We will continue to monitor the departmental email account during this time. Due to the extremely high volume of messages, we may not be able to respond to every email immediately.
They’re closed during the holidays. You only got a login if you applied a while ago, and it won’t take them too long once they’re open again. I applied December 9th and I got my login the next day.
I hope that they get it!
Yeah I applied like 30th but submitted all my recommendations like the 24th and they did not download everything until yesterday, so no worries man 
@Mia4949 yeah, I still got nothing
