How exactly does Penn notify you of completion?

<p>If I am missing something in my application, I know Penn will e-mail me. However, if my app is complete, does the Penn admissions folk e-mail me as well? If I do not get an e-mail, should I assume my application is complete?</p>

<p>postcard.+++</p>

<p>postcard = not complete app</p>

<p>OR</p>

<p>postcard = complete app</p>

<p>???</p>

<p>You can call the admissions office to manually check the status of your app. But be warned: the adcoms at Penn are being flooded with phone calls, so they can be particularly nasty right now.</p>

<p>Don't call. Gosh dangit. They'll find a way to notify you if your app has problems. DON'T bug the admissions people.</p>

<p>Has anyone received notification that your application is complete?</p>

<p>it notifies you by not notifying you.</p>

<p>i was notified via acceptance letter hehe</p>

<p>well, i received an email sayin my sat2 score missing.......they listed all the required materiala nd putting a cross i front of sat2 score sayin missing..tho how come i dunno cos i had sat1 n sat2 send together by collegeboard!!</p>

<p>so megamike, you didn't get any confirmation, no postcard, nothing at all telling you that your app was complete? just the acceptance letter? or did you call?</p>

<p>i got the letter with the login information and a postcard saying they got it, but nothing about completion</p>

<p>I got a letter saying they received my application. It had my UserID and PassCode. I didn't get a postcard though.</p>

<p>^ Same. I received a letter with UserID and PassCode that stated my application was complete and my decision would be available on 3/31/05 @ 5PM.</p>

<p>hi, need advice....
i received an email almost 2 weeks back form UPenn sayin my sat2 not received/missing but sat1 have.. prob is my sat1 ands sat2 were send together by collegboard and i even called collegeboard to confirm that my scores have been send.. Penn asked me to fax them a copy of scores signed by school whihc i have done but they also asked for original to be send.... collegboard adviced me to wait as it is possibel at the time they were putting all my doc together or reviewing they ahd not complied my sat2 score yet..however, how am i going ot know if they have finally found my sat2 score?? shall i ask collegeboard to send again or wait fir Upenn if they still tell me they have not received?? shall i juz email them and ask? [worried]</p>

<p>Whew! it took a long time to find my way to the end of your post neha. Try and put some more effort when posting so that I don't get lost in spelling mistakes:) Anyway, I think upenn made an error while filing your scores coz it's impossible that your sat 1 has been received but sat 2 has not, considering that they are on the same report sheet. Call up upenn to check your file again. If they still don't have it, send the scores again through collegeboard.</p>

The letter doesn't say that your app is complete. I got the letter even before my recs and transcripts were sent in. The purpose of the letter to provide you with the userID only.</p>

<p>so...how do we check our status?</p>

<p>oopzz...sorry bruno for the typos... :p
ya ..i tried callin upenn reagrdin this but the admission officer very nicely told me she has no time to check for everyone and itz up to me if i wanna send again...and if collegeboard sends again for me, even tho their records show tt they have already send, will i still have to pay...lol</p>
