<p>So on my Syracuse account to check application status it says they just need... my transcript which has just been mailed and...</p>
<p>"1st Senior Mrkng Period Grades"</p>
<p>^ this means the first grades that are lgit/marked, so for my school that would be semester which i would send in with my midyear school report.. correct??</p>
<p>I would say you are correct if you are applying regular decision. If you are applying ED I would seek clarification from the admissions office at Syracuse. I have seen at least one school that requests "expected grades" from the student if the official grades are not available.</p>
