<p>I already submitted a bunch of apps and received confirmation emails from common app. I was just wondering if the individual colleges are supposed to email me to confirm and/or send me info for an account to log onto on their site. I thought that each college had a way for me to check if all of my materials have been received. Also how will I get my decision? Mail or email?</p>
<p>Most schools will send you an e-mail after they have downloaded your app. Some may take a day while others take over a week. It usually has the instruction to set up a login/password for tracking your application. Some school would not send you confirmation e-mail but an e-mail for missing materials some time after the application deadline. You should check with each school’s website to see if you can track your application. Don’t just wait for the e-mail.</p>
