<p>Hey I applied to Emory and they mailed me my OPUS login but when I log in it says my counselor rec, transcripts, and nomination forms for Emory Scholars are initiated. What does this mean exactly, I know my counselor uploaded my transcripts and recs on the Common App and I know she mailed in my Emory Scholars nomination form?</p>
<p>As I understand it, sometimes there is a time lag between uploading the documents by high schools and downloading by college admissions office assistants during the busy season. When the college downloads, OPUS changes from “initiated” to “completed.” I might wait awhile, but after a couple of weeks, or if a deadline is approaching, you might want to call or email the admissions office about this to make sure something didn’t get lost in transit.</p>
<p>Ok thanks. The deadline for Emory Scholars was November 1 so hopefully I am ok.</p>
<p>same thing for me</p>
<p>I sent all my stuff in on October 1st and all my initiated were changed to completed as fast as light. But that was back in October…</p>
<p>So, yes, now that it’s busy season there will be more lags. This is also posted on their website.</p>
