Maryland Transcript Status
To everyone who's applied to Maryland, does you application status show your application in complete? I sent my transcripts in early Jan which reached before the deadline on Jan 11th. It's been nearly 3 weeks now and my status still shows that my transcripts are awaited. My GRE and TOEFL scores have arrived though.
Is anyone else facing the same problem? I tried contacting them but haven't had a reply so far . Oh, and I also forgot to attach the covering sheet with my documents .

Re: Maryland Transcript Status
They emailed me in early January saying the school was way behind in uploading several documents. The email asked if I could directly send whatever piece was missing in a reply email. Even after that, the application status was not updated for 1-2 weeks. I would try to directly contact them by phone. My experience was with the Astronomy Department.

Mine says complete when I go to check application status on the ASF form, but I sent my transcripts in mid December. Did you mail or fax your documents? If not the cover sheet was not needed.P-representation wrote:To everyone who's applied to Maryland, does you application status show your application in complete?

I sent them through DHL twice, once for the transcripts and the next time for the certification of finances form (attached with another copy of my transcript). I wrote my program code and name on them, so I hope it wouldn't be a major problem.
Also, I mailed the secretary of the physics department to check my status. Should I mail the graduate school directly instead?

Re: Maryland Transcript Status
I sent my transcript in mid-December and it finally said that they had it on my check application status two days ago.

Re: Maryland Transcript Status
I'm in the same boat. I sent my transcripts in early January (with the cover sheet), but the ASF site still says that they're missing. It also says not to contact them until 3 weeks after you submit, because they're swamped right now. But I got an email from a professor last week saying that he had seen my application, so I'm not worried. I also have to think that with this many people complaining about it, they'll cut you some slack when considering the applications - so if your transcripts got lost or were late or something, they probably won't hold it against you if they're having trouble managing all of the documents this year.

Re: Maryland Transcript Status
Same thing happened to me. Sometime about a week ago I panicked and resent my transcript overnight when I saw that they hadn't received it. It still says that they don't have the transcript, so I'll just wait now.

Re: Maryland Transcript Status
Same here - they've listed one of my transcripts as missing despite sending it in late December.

Re: Maryland Transcript Status
I just checked my status today, and it said "complete", so it looks like they finally got my transcript sorted out.
Re: Maryland Transcript Status
Has anyone heard anything from UMaryland? Or any schools with deadlines in january? I only applied to these late schools, and I've only got my first response yesterday. At least it was positive.
Re: Maryland Transcript Status
I haven't heard from UMD, but I did hear from UCSD, which also had a Jan. 15th deadline. According to the UMD application site, all decisions are given via snail mail, so it might be a while before you get it.walczyk wrote:Has anyone heard anything from UMaryland?

Re: Maryland Transcript Status
If memory serves, Maryland has been rather slow each year in sending out acceptances.
