They withdrew my app FOR me!

<p>Well, not my application, but my brother’s. He got a postcard today that said that due to his incomplete application file, his application has been officially withdrawn. </p>

<p>Is this fair? Shouldn’t they have notified him and given him a fair chance to complete his application instead of just going “oh, it’s incomplete, well then we just have to WITHDRAW it?”</p>

<p>It just seems a little rash/drastic to me…</p>

<p>that is odd..usually they will notify a person if their application is incomplete and you will have until they are at the end of the RD undergrad applications review process. Strange. If I were him, I would call and see what's up and why he wasn't notified. What was he missing?</p>

<p>that is awful, i would def call if i were him</p>

<p>It doesn't say what he was missing, just that his application has been withdraw. We presume it was a teacher recommendation, since a couple other schools did not receive them (postal problems). </p>

<p>He is going to call tomorrow. I hope they still let him apply! :o</p>

<p>i think i would strangle one of my references if they didn't send in my recc and that's why my application was withdrawn..ohhhhhh i'd freak</p>

<p>lol......ur Brother is obviously LYING!
Boston College requires only ONE recommendation.......
i did EA.....and i Know.</p>

<p>are you sure? 'cus on commonapp.org it says that BC REQUIRES 2 Teacher Evaluations, School Report (this includes a recommendation from your counselor) and a Mid-Year Report. I sent all of these in and I also applied EA.</p>

<p>u bet i am.......coz i was freakin out all over since only one of the recs made in...
so i called them up and they were like ah, ur app is complete.........one recommendation is enuf.</p>

<p>he doesn't have to be lying...lol..all she said was they THINK it's a recc..didn't say how many they did or did not recieve..reeeelax</p>

<p>lol, well that works out then btboxpunk. that is kinda weird how they would do that to your brother, calidan. i hope everything works out!</p>

<p>hey heyy.....im pretty relaxed.in fact more so than i should be... besides i was half-kiddin.........way to take it all so seriously, punk.
yea apparently calling admissions office tends to sort out all problems.
((by the way, the brother didnt turn in the common app on time.)) lol. i know
bah...sorry.</p>

<p>Oh yeah, well actually all the schools that are missing recs are missing BOTH recs... so that sucks.</p>

<p>We think it was some postage problem or something.</p>

<p>i definitely thought you needed 2 recs... and i sent 2.</p>

<p>and my app was incomplete and they notified me, so i fixed it. i can't believe they didn't tell your brother.</p>
