Late Transcript to CUNY

College Search & Selection Community Colleges

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I sent out my application to CUNY back in October of 2012. I applied to three community colleges. Thinking my high school counselor already sent my transcript when I requested her to in November, I thought my whole application was complete; however, it is now past the February deadline and my application status still says that my transcript has not been received. On February 8th, I requested that my counselor send it again in which she said that it will be going out in the mail the day I asked her. I am aware that it will be considered late, but will I be denied because of this even if my application was sent in October, several months before the deadline?</p>

<p>Nope. CUNYs are rolling admissions. There’s no way that community colleges will not take you because it’s late.</p>

<p>Thank you!
I was so worried because they said the deadline was February 1st and I didn’t get my transcript sent until a week after.</p>

<p>What matter is if your application was sent in time. Everything else can come later.</p>

5

<p>Okay, great! Is the February 1st deadline just for 4-year colleges under CUNY, such as Hunter and Baruch?</p>

6

<p>The deadline applies to all colleges that are CUNY, either community colleges or 4 year colleges.</p>

<p>I’m confused… on the website it says all applications and documents including transcripts must be sent by the postmark date which is February 1st. But you’re saying the community colleges will still accept mine if the transcript is sent late…?</p>

<p>Did they get your transcripts yet? I’m on the same boat.</p>

<p>Well I checked my application status and it still says my file does not include a complete transcript, but I got it sent on February 8th, so it should have arrived there by now…</p>
