How do you know your application has been received?

<p>I sent my app. in RD to UPENN, and a few other schools. When or How will I know if my application has been received and everything is okay?</p>

<p>I don't know about other schools, but Penn will send you a postcard saying they received your application.</p>

<p>I got a card only for part 1, but I didn't have part 2 sent in at the time? Is this normal? (for online app)</p>

<p>how long did it take to get the postcard from the date you submitted your app.?</p>

<p>wait.. don't they have an online check for your applications?</p>

<p>No, there's no way to check online. You either have to call admissions or supposedly, if they mail you a PIN number for access to the decision, that meant everything was there. I read about some people being contacted by email or a postcard if there were something missing.</p>

<p>They send you a card with a list of all the things you have to turn in, and if there's a checkmark beside one of the things, it means that thing is missing. Happened to me.</p>
