The office will send out your copy at the same time they send to the other recipients, so its safe to assume that when you receive your copy, so too have everyone else. Thanks for the advice. I have a meeting with one of the counselors tomorrow so I will ask about the records then. I would definitely call the sender and make sure it's been sent. If it has in fact been sent, maybe you could at least get them to email or fax you or your college counselor a copy so that you will have it for your meeting.
I know most colleges will not accept anything but the original with the embossed seal, signed, in an offical envelope, etc of the sending school, but at least you will have something showing what courses you have taken, and what your grades were. It could very well be as the others have said. The registrars office could be swamped. Also, because they are human, and humans make mistakes, it could have just been missplaced, missfiled etc.
I know with one of my kids, there was another kid in his school that had similar name, different, but similar. The registrars office was always confusing the two. The other kids stuff was always showing up in my son's file.
Even with student ID numbers and them being in different grades the school was always trying to give my son this other kids stuff and vise versa. Even we didn't catch sometimes. It's too bad too, because the other kid had a better GPA than my kid!
It's a good thing my son and the other kid happened to be friends. Just saying people mess up some times. If it doesn't show up at the colllege soon, just have them resend it. As for the ACT scores, as I recall, if you don't have them expediated I think they can take a couple of weeks to actaully be sent, especially this time of year. Have you checked to make sure they were actually sent. Perhaps more importantly, most schools require you to submit all relevant transcripts. It may even be an honor code violation to exclude a school.
In most cases, you cannot pick up a copy of your transcript and take it to your new university. So contact each school as early in the application process as possible. Most schools ask you to provide a specific address to which to send your transcript. Contact them before completing a transcript request, because sending a transcript to the wrong office can delay the process or incur additional expenses.

This is so common across different universities that there can be an underlying common reason. It probably doesn't take long to produce one transcript, but if you have to produce thousands it's a common thing, after all , there is likely a huge backlog especially if one person has to sign all of them, among their other duties.
Two weeks is actually not that long for something involving several levels of administration. Davidmh I voted to close for two reasons: one is too specific and the other one is unclear the OP did not say whether two weeks is for paper mail or electronic mail.
To me, two weeks is perfectly reasonable if it's paper mail. I don't think that an official transcript can even be sent through email or fax in most cases, though I don't know that for sure.
I agree with ChristianClason - you seem to have several misconceptions. First, there is not somebody sitting around with nothing to do, waiting for a transcript request to come in. Second, of course the transcript has to be requested by the student certainly in the US - the university can't give out a transcript to anybody who asks - it has to be authorized by the student.
My daughter's university does not send grades to the parents - we have to ask her.
