What to do if GA Tech hasn't received my college transcript for transfer?

I've applied to transfer to GA Tech, but they still haven't gotten my transcripts. What steps can I take to resolve this issue, and is anyone else facing similar problems?

The first thing to do here is to check with your current institution's transcript office to ensure that they sent your transcripts and ask how they were sent. If you can, try to get a tracking number or other verification information for the transcript delivery.

Next, get in touch with GA Tech's admissions office. It's important to have a conversation regarding your situation and confirm that your transcripts haven't been received. Be patient during this process, as there's often a lag between when materials are received and when they are processed and show up in your application checklist. This is especially true during busier times of the admission cycle.

If the issue persists and you've confirmed from your school that the transcripts were indeed sent, you might consider sending them again. Just remember to keep all your communication records with both institutions, in case you need them to prove your case later on.

Additionally, stay aware of any existing deadline to submit transcripts, and how a possible delay might affect your application. You might want to explain your situation to GA Tech admissions in detail to see if they can offer any accommodations due to your circumstances.

And finally, you're not alone. Transcript delivery and processing issues are often experienced by transfer students. It helps to plan and send transcripts early, allowing ample time for them to be processed.
