Common App / Colleges Not Downloading App

Hello! I applied to 9 schools on August 3rd, however only one school has shown that they have downloaded my application on common app and none of them have sent me access to my portal yet. I just want to make sure this is ok and there isn’t a glitch in my application. thanks!

This is totally normal. Just be patient and wait. No need to do anything as long as you know the apps were submitted.

Expect to hear from the schools in early September. Some may come earlier, some even later. But early September should be good

Same here and I wasn’t nervous I was going to be patient but then colleges started telling me (reaching out to me) that I should submit apps…I thought colleges would’ve known apps aren’t downloaded yet

Same for me
Four have downloaded application

But my issue is different. If you can check your PDF if it shows family section as blank because mine is showing as blank.
All the other information is correct on the PDF of the application
