question about submitting NYU thu commonapp

<p>i submitted the application on time (1/15)
and accidently paid TWICE and the common app checklist thingy under the payment section still says "offsite" in red, and others are green "downloaded"
what does 'offsite' mean?
i still haven't recieved any confirmation mail from NYU saying that i had sent out my application....
(it's like whenever you send out an app. to a college, they automatically reply you an email saying something like: thanks for applying to our university, we'll look forward...blahblah)</p>

<p>but i never recieved any mails like that... i called and the admissions but they won't let me check..</p>

<p>is this usual??</p>

<p>'Offsite' just means that you have to pay for the application off the Common App Website, and that the Common App won't know or mencion whether your completed the payment or not. NYU gets a LOT of applicants (like 30,000+), so they're still probably sorting through the apps right now. It took me a while to get my confirmation too so don't worry. But if the wait becomes too long, I would make sure to contact them again, whether through phone or email.</p>

<p>yeah i did the exact same thing you did bsnRhapsody: i applied, paid, and i still haven't gotten any notification back from nyu... i doubt that there is much to worry about yet, i am just going to call back in a few more days- can anyone else shed any light on this???</p>
