Anyone else’s says college transcript awaiting? After submitting them weeks ago?

6

They received all of mine; you should contact the office of admission

I contacted them today, they said that if I sent it they have it. Weird, is that they updated my high school transcript status, that I submitted way after my college transcript.

8

Maybe resend; doesn’t hurt doing that
