I sent transcripts but my application status says they're needed?

<p>So I sent my transcripts to Penn State two weeks ago (Sept. 3) and since the 4th I've seen this message on my application status: </p>

<p>"Our records show that your application is currently incomplete.</p>

<p>Your application will be complete upon receipt of the following required materials:</p>

<p>9th Grade transcript needed.
10th Grade transcript needed.
11th Grade transcript needed."</p>

<p>But the transcripts should have been received by now, right? And Penn State hasn't emailed me about any missing documents either. Has anyone else gotten this message but know the transcripts were sent?</p>

<p>We sent my daughter’s transcript on 9/2 and the status changed to “Your application and high school transcript have been received. Please continue to check your status” on 9/10. I’m sure the admissions office has been flooded with apps and transcripts, so I’d give it a little more time.</p>

<p>My daughter applied 9/1. On 9/3 her transcripts were electronically sent by her high school. On 9/4 the message appeared that her application and transcripts were received. Then another change to the" application is complete, please continue to check your status". Then last week this status changed again to “your credentials are being reviewed. A decision will be available here as soon as one is made”. If your transcripts were sent electronically then I would definitely call. My daughter had to call for something else and they were very helpful. </p>

<p>It should be fine, last year my transcripts took a while to show up on the website. They are being flooded with applications, and they may not have had time to update your information. </p>

<p>Thanks everyone…I’ve been checking daily to see if anything changes and I had decided to call by the end of this week if my status hadn’t changed, but it did today! Now it says: “Your application and high school transcript have been received. Please continue to check your status.”</p>

<p>I just wanted to put our experience on this thread in case anyone’s googling. My D’s transcript was sent Wednesday afternoon. The status changed almost right away but instead of reading that everything was in process, it read:</p>

<p>“Your application and high school transcript have been received. Please continue to check your status.
• 9th Grade transcript needed.
• 10th Grade transcript needed.
• 11th Grade transcript needed.”</p>

<p>Then at about 5 pm Thursday, it changed. Now it simply reads, “Your application and high school transcript have been received. Please continue to check your status”</p>
