<p>So I've submitted 2 applications for the common app (and by that I mean I've submitted the app itself, the supplement, and the payment) but the home screen for the my colleges section shows an orange box next to the college, indicating that the app has only been partially completed.
Is this normal?</p>
<p>i submitted everything as well and i also have a yellow box next to each college (general section). in addition, even though i made all my onsite payments, they are red triangles. i believe common app just has prepared the site badly. they really need to improve the site. or is this something else we're missing?</p>
<p>It's not unusual... in fact, geek_son's ED application still shows on commonapp.org as incomplete (he's admitted :)). The "culprit" is usually the school forms. Click your college to double-check that all the parts you have to submit are green; if so, you're ok at least for now.</p>
<p>If you supplied email addresses for your teachers but your rec letters will be sent by mail, commonapp.org will never tell you your application is complete... no big deal at all, as it's only because the colleges wouldn't be closing the loop with commonapp.org to say they've received your letters.</p>
<p>The bit about payments being red triangles is only troublesome if they remain red triangles on Monday. That's because the bank that commonapp.org uses to process payments only operates during normal business hours.</p>
<p>Thank you very much for responding...
haha I was completely freaking out up until about five minutes ago.</p>
