Hi everyone-
I was hoping someone else might have a similar predicament as I am with the Ohio State main graduate school application. It says for my supplemental materials, my GRE scores are listed as "completed" but my transcripts are listed as "initiated." I sent my transcripts to them overnight 2 weeks ago, and know that they have already received them. This is what the description for initiated materials says in the FAQ graduate admissions section:
Items listed as "Initiated" on your application checklist have not yet been received, or they have been received but not yet recorded. After items have been received and recorded, they appear as "Completed" on the checklist. Please be advised "Completed" only means "received", it does not indicate the document has been fully evaluated. After evaluation if anything is still needed, it will appear on your application checklist as an "initiated" item on your Applicant Center at:http://appstatus.osu.edu.
What should I do? Should I email them at the contact email they sent me to make sure they're in a file somewhere? My deadline for the OSU Psych program was today, but it says it can take up to 4 weeks for them to process transcripts (WTH???).
Btw, I hope this isn't a bad omen, but I feel like OSU's bureaucracy and red tape is already apparent in their admissions applications. Oy.
