I hate my undergrad school.....................

They can't send a simple transcript! One of my schools STILL has not recieved one. I requested one in DECEMBER. I then requested another one last week..................IT STILL HASN'T ARRIVED. I called them today and the cute little bimbo blamed it on the mail being "slow". I have to pay them for every transcript request, and I paid more for prompt service!

I'm giving them until monday, and then they are getting a angry phone call and I am not getting off until someone explains this to me.

Odd that a professor who screwed up a rec. letter sent something this week TO THE EXACT SAME ADDRESS. And that arrived already.

It's my first choice school, and even though their deadline is late, I hoped to have an answer early to maybe get a better chance at funding (I really can't afford to not have any funding.) :(

I hope those idiots realize that they are messing with people's futures. If I don't get into a school I can afford......................I'm done. I have no other options and no idea what I'll do.

Did you apply to UW's online program? I've heard it's good, and I think they accept a large percentage of applicants, so even if your application is reviewed later (due to transcripts), you should be OK. Good luck -- that sounds really frustrating.

I applied to UW brick and mortar program, but checked the box that said..........consider me for online if no room or somesuch.

My top choice is Buffalo.........combination of convience and price. A MLS isn't worth 50K in debt. UBC is my second choice.

Pro tip: Don't call administrative workers "cute little bimbos" when you are using your name for a screen name (with the same user image as your FB account, no less).

I agree.. I think there is a reason that most people on such forums don't use their real names.. It's easy to say the "wrong" things on a faceless forum such as this one and nobody would want it to be traced back to them.. If I were you, I would make sure I edit that thing out, just to be on the safer side..

And regarding your original post, I can understand what you must be going through..Don't delay it any further, talk to someone higher up if needed..

I was worried that my UG uni would be slow in sending out transcripts too so I ordered them so that they came to ME in sealed, signed envelopes and then I organized all my packets and sent them to the unis I applied to myself with delivery confirmations from USPS.

So far, none of the unis I applied to have said that they can't accept these transcripts and I got an interview so it must be fine.

Perhaps if you still have problems, you might do this and then you'll have the peace of mind that it's DONE. :)

You may want to look into a transcript/reference service in the future (it's helpful so you don't have to keep bugging your undergrad).
