I applied to a number of schools; I have received confirmation emails and information for “app tracking accounts” where appropriate, except from two schools. Neither Amherst College no Brown University have sent any kind of confirmation, yet I applied December 23rd and December 31st respectively. Is this cause for concern? It has been weeks in the case of Amherst, and still no information to create my https://www.amherst.edu/admission/applicants/monitor_application account. I hope they haven’t lost my applications… sent both schools an email but I do not expect a response given the increased volume of mail they are currently receiving. If anyone has experience with this type of issue, please offer advice on how I should proceed.
D hasn’t received her Amherst confirmation either, as well as several other schools (Bates and Skidmore off the top of my head).
Brown hasn’t sent anything to anybody yet, so it’s just not you.
That makes me feel much better, thanks. Hopefully they will send us letters soon.
Brown takes forever if you applied within five or so days of the deadline, simply because they get SO many applications. I’m sure Amherst is the same way. I don’t think it’s something to worry about.
