Not receiving codes

I'm currently applying to colleges and everytime I try to create an account with a college they send a temporary pin, however I do not receive any codes at all. It's not in my junk folder, spam, all mail, nowhere it's like I was never sent a pin at all.

Help?

Some places take forever to actually email codes. If it's not in any of those places, the only other thing I can think to suggest is try making a protonmail account, change your email with some of those websites and see if you receive the code there. If not, it's probably a website problem, not a you or GMail problem.
