<p>I'm about to apply to colleges, but my transcripts are not yet ready for a couple of weeks. If I was to apply now, would my app be rejected or would they wait for my transcripts to come in? And if the school has say early action, would they go by the time I applied or they recieved my transcript?</p>
<p>All the pieces of the application will be saved until everything is complete. The college starts your file as soon as they get the first piece, and don't close it until after decisions are made.</p>
<p>As for EA... it depends on the school. Some require all materials to be in by the date, while others just want them postmarked by then. Check the specific school's website for details on how they want it.</p>
