Hey there! I applied to CMU recently and I've been feeling impatient, to be honest. How can I keep track of my application status? If anyone can guide me through the process, it'd be a huge relief!
Absolutely, tracking your application status can certainly help alleviate some of the stress that comes with the college application process. Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) has a very systematic way for applicants to track their application status. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you with that:
1. Visit their official website: A student can check their application status by visiting the official CMU website.
2. Log in to "Where Am I in the Process": CMU provides an online tool called "Where Am I in the Process", which allows applicants to check the status of their application and related materials. Logging into this portal will require the log-in ID and password that you were provided when you first submitted your application.
3. Check application status: Once you've logged in, click on the link that says "View Application". This will take you to a page where you can see your application status, whether it is complete, incomplete, or under review. This can give you an idea of where your application is in the process.
4. Keep track of materials: This tool also enables applicants to view the materials the university has received and processed. This includes your primary application, supplemental documents such as transcripts, letters of recommendation, test scores, etc.
Remember, updates to your application status can sometimes take a few days to reflect on the portal, especially when multiple applications are being processed. So, you might need a bit of patience! If there's something you're especially worried about though or if there's a prolonged period of time without an update, don't hesitate to contact the admissions office directly. They're there to help you with precisely this kind of query. Good luck with your application to CMU! I hope you receive positive news soon!
