How do you verify that American received your application?

<p>D sent her Common App to American early this week. She got a confirmation from common app that it was sent, but hasn’t seen anything from American. On the website, through the perspective student portal/application status, it just has a standard message that applications are being reviewed, but nothing specific about the status of her application.<br>
How do we verify that it was received? How long should it take to get verification by email, or on the website?</p>

<p>Has your daughter had an interview? Or met a rep at a college fair or visit? I would contact them. </p>

<p>D checked with American. They did received her application. We are relieved to know it is actually there, and made it before the deadlines. I am surprised they don’t have some automated way to let prospective students know their applications have been received. But, all is well. Now for the wait. :-SS </p>
