forgot to send a transcript

[poetryomgz]

So, basically the fall semester, for a myriad of reasons, was absolutely terrible and insane for me, and I was doing grad school applications in the middle of the craziness. I've since realized that on all my applications I forgot to list one of the schools I attended, and I neglected to have my transcripts sent from that school as well. It's a community college at which I took one class which I transferred to the university I graduated from for credit. I should also note that the credit shows on my bachelor's transcript as a transfer credit from that school, so anyone who examines my transcript from my undergrad institution will be able to see that it was a transfer credit and the name of the community college.

 

I've been seriously beating myself over the head for forgetting that transcript--I wasn't trying to hide anything or be dishonest (really there's nothing to hide; it's a math class and I got a B in it); it's just I took that class two years ago and haven't thought about it since and it kind of got lost in the shuffle.

 

So, am I going to be completely screwed for not listing the school on my apps or sending the transcripts? What should I do? All the deadlines have passed and the applications have been turned in, so I don't think going ahead and sending the transcript now would make any difference.

 

Should I call the schools and ask or should I just wait it out and see if I get any acceptances and bring it up then?

Send them in now! Let the school(s) know you missed the school on your application and that the transcripts are on their way.  Most programs allow materials to be submitted up to 6 weeks after the due date, to allow for just this situation.  It'll look worse to leave it out entirely - remember - they know we are only human and we all make mistakes

For your peace of mind, just give them a call. Some schools may or may not process and forward applications until they've received all transcripts from the schools you've attended. But see what the schools say and take it from there.

Yeah I would contact the program coordinator and explain. Some schools only require transcripts from places where received a degree, so you'd be fine with those, otherwise, ask if you can send it in now. Good luck!
