<p>I sent my paper application to Princeton 3 weeks ago but I never got a confirmation e-mail saying my application was received. I e-mailed them about it but all I got for a reply was "Due to the high volume of mail up to the January 1 deadline, there can be a delay between the time we receive your materials and when they appear on the tracking system. Please keep checking the system. "</p>
<p>The only problem is that I can't check the tracking system because the username/password comes with the confirmation e-mail...which I never got.</p>
