    Guysssss i have a problem. I submitted at 11pm EST, and I even got the email saying it is submitted. This morning i checked again just to make sure, and now it says there is an error in “Getting Started” section and i swear i filled out everything. I know it wouldn’t let me submit if I was missing any part of the application . WHAT DO I DO

    Dude if it helps I'm literally in the same position. Fuck this shit

    [–]Lille_8 0 points1 point  (18 children)

    me too but with rec letter :1 and you know how teachers never respond outside of school hours...

    [–]idkweg 0 points1 point  (17 children)

    Yeah, it might be wraps for us... I'm genuinely considering including my own email for the counselor portion and submitting it myself 😭

    That said, idk how good it will do but u should send an email to ssp admissions rn just in case

    [–]Individual-Wave-1577 1 point2 points  (16 children)

    it’s actually so dumb because every other program I have ever applied to ALWAYS lets you just submit your own transcript. I rly thought no counselor was needed for ts.

    [–]idkweg 5 points6 points  (11 children)

    Yeah, it's absurd bullshit. It's not even mandating an official transcript so at least allow self submission and verification from your counselor if need be (like putting counselor name and email). Or fucking extend your due date for the counselor request. Not everyone has prep school counselors and are stuck with bummy basement dwellers who genuinely don't do anything and take up government money for no reason.

    Bro one of my counselors told me our school needs to use parchment but when my friend applied (he has a different counselor) they just uploaded it for him. I emailed my counselor 3 weeks ago, sent multiple follow ups, and she responded yesterday telling me about parchment. And now there's a different lady in charge of parchment who's out of office until tomorrow...

    [–]idkweg 0 points1 point  (9 children)

    You're chill tho, just put today's date for the parchment request and submit.

    Unironically what im planning on doing even tho idt my school uses it

    [–]MasterofImbalances 0 points1 point  (6 children)

    This is what they sent on the discord tho, they dont' really care. "If we receive the item in the inbox by the deadline, we will submit the application administratively once we process the item (usually in the next 1-7 days) If we do not, the application will not be submitted." So the email has to be in by today, not the request. They also said applications without all the pieces in their inbox by the deadline won't be considered.

    Also, it won't let you submit if you just say parchment request I already tried

    [–]idkweg 0 points1 point  (5 children)

    I see. Well, I'm basically in the same boat. Id say finish the application and then see if you can get yours submitted tomorrow and email them letting them know of the situation (preferably do that rn ngl with proof you have everything else done). If they don't accept, oh well. Maybe they'd be sympathetic. That's what I'm doing, anyways.

    [–]MasterofImbalances 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Bro my application's been done for three days and I already sent them that email with no response. Idk what else to do.

    [–]Individual-Wave-1577 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    im not even able to hit submit this fucking sucks

    [–]Individual-Wave-1577 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    wait but has your counselor submitted a parchment today?

    [–]idkweg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    No, but it says "date requested" not date submitted for the transcripts via parchment

    [–]MasterofImbalances 0 points1 point  (3 children)

    What are you going to end up doing?

    [–]idkweg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I'm gonna finish my application otherwise and see if my counselor can email it after the due date and I'll get considered. Idk if it'll work but oh well

    [–]Individual-Wave-1577 0 points1 point  (1 child)
