<p>I am from Baltimore, Maryland. I’m also applying to Georgetown, UVA, UNC, American, and Bucknell. Cornell would be my top choice.</p>
<p>[ADVICE NEEDED]</p>
<p>My College Official’s Report is listed as missing and I received an email to send all missing documents. I had a report sent in from one school that was mailed at the end of last month that I’m assuming didn’t make it. I do have an additional copy though that was filled out by a second college of mine for such a circumstance as this. However, at this college, they do not send it but instead return the form to the student to send him or her self. Moreover, they only filled out my cumulative GPA, dates of attendance, and then the Disciplinary Record at the end of the second page. Ratings and Evaluation are not filled out, neither is the bottom portion of the first page asking for College Official’s Name and College Address. I asked for the entire form to be filled out but my request was denied, being told that is all they do.</p>
<p>Other schools I’ve attended had no idea what the College Official’s Report is and would not fill it out. Calling admissions to inquire about the state of completion of this College Official’s Report and my missing Report that was already mailed, I was told the report sent might not have been added to my application due to the form not being filled out all the way. I do not know how that report was filled out as the college sent it themselves but I am now concerned about sending the other Report I have considering portions of it are left blank.</p>
<p>I am unsure of how to handle this. I’ve already petitioned my schools for this Report to be filled out either being denied or receiving a Report not fully completed or a Report that was sent a month after request that either did not arrive or was not properly filled out. I am at a loss of what to do now. </p>
<p>Anyone have any advice?</p>
<p>I think it can be solved easily. Go to your school, and ask them to fill out the entire form again, and if they wouldn’t, ask them to write down “no basis” or “refuse to answer”. If they are being an ahole, just ask them to do you a favor. They have filled out all the most important information anyway, so whatever further information they refused to give shouldn’t be a problem as long as Cornell knows you couldn’t do anything about it.</p>
<p>yeah i had a similar problem. mine showed up as not received because part of the college report wasn’t filled out. my dean refused to fill out the section to rate me because he didn’t know me. but i called cornell and explained them and they said it wasn’t a problem and they considered it as ‘no basis’ and marked my application as complete.</p>
<p>i just took mine to a counselor, and she filled all of it out; no dean required. Maybe you can try that?</p>
<p>Yea my advisor filled out mine and had the dean just sign it without looking at it.</p>
<p>I can’t see a counselor. They all require appointments for anything to be filled out and are of course booked. </p>
<p>As for petitioning to have the other areas be filled out, at my one school she refused, saying it’s the counselors responsibility. I’m going to bring the form to the initial school that sent the report to request them fill everything out and resend but am uncertain they will comply and considering it took them over a month to send the first Report, it’s doubtful it will arrive by April 12. </p>
<p>As for contacting Cornell, I emailed them and received this as a reply: </p>
<p>"Unfortunately, we cannot accept reports that are sent to us by you personally. As you can imagine, we have had other students let us know that their school would not complete the form only to find out later that the student completed the form. So please understand why we are asking you have someone from you school complete it and send it to us directly. The proliferation of fraudulent credentials require that we receive official forms directly from the institution.</p>
<p>You are welcome to provide a self-addressed envelope and the Los Angeles Mission College report to you academic advisor. Have him/her sign-off on the report and drop it in the mail."</p>
<p>Which doesn’t answer my concern or bring forth a solution.</p>
<p>Hey guys, you think faxing the mid-term report on Monday would be fine? Admissions told me end of March would suffice but I hope it won’t put me at any type of disadvantage.</p>
<p>hmmm…at my school, you could also take it to admissions and have them to send a gpa verification attached to the report paper and then have an administrator in the student life or activities office fill out the disciplinary part. those are the only 2 parts you need</p>
<p>ya that should be cool powers</p>
<p>@youngjeezy @jimbo719
GOOD LUCK you guys~
just showing support!</p>
<p>@superpowers, monday sounds good. i honestly think sooner the better but you won’t be at a disadvantage.</p>
<p>Any California transfer applicants in the thread?</p>
<p>I am from Cali!!</p>
<p>thanks qawsed! good luck to you too!
im from LA!!</p>
<p>I wont be interviewing til monday now, so ill let u know then</p>
<p>Midterm report faxed in! Hopefully it gets added to my application, which was sent to review last week! </p>
<p>Good luck everyone! This time a month from now, a lot of us will have decisions! Ah!</p>
<p>From what I can tell, IRL gives out decisions fairly early and by phone. Is this correct?</p>
<p>ILR* i meant to say</p>
<p>@kkthxby3, I had difficulty sending in one of my college reports as well. The school refused to do it for me because they said only my current school needed to fill it out. They then refused to further communicate with me via phone or email. I had to go in to their office in person and call up the ILR school in front of the dean so she could hear that I did indeed need her to fill out the report. The dean begrudgingly said, “I don’t know why Cornell doesn’t follow the rules.” They even made me pick it up days later and I had to send it off myself.</p>
<p>Just do whatever it takes.</p>

<p>I like your last sentence, lol</p>
