Damn You Rutgers!

[sleepymaggie]

I just got an email from SCILS telling me that I'm missing parts of my application -- which I find odd since I triple-checked that I had everything in.

So I check the online application status page, which tells me that I *have* turned everything in, and even lists the dates that they received things.

So I call SCILS to find out if I'm missing something extra that wasn't on the application. They tell me that they're missing my GRE scores and my third letter of rec. While I'm talking to her I can see the webpage telling me that they received copies and the dates they got them on.

Which means these items are lost somewhere between the Graduate School and SCILS. The lady I talked to said they'd try to track things down and just have me re-send them if they can't. Two problems with this: 1) GRE scores cost money to send (money that I don't really have and 2) the prof I got this particular letter of rec is *incredibly* busy and probably won't have time to see me again any time soon.

I hope they find the papers. Rutgers needs to get its shit together.
