Just want to know if this is uncommon before I email them.

It could be that you did not send enough academic LORs. If you're within a few years of finishing school, they require two (I believe) academic LORs. I had the same thing happen to me, and that was what I was told by the admissions office.

Still Applied, too.

App submited in November, and I'm certain it was complete.

Sent more than required, all academic. (Though one was a professor I interned for)

I am still at "applied", but based on this thread I plan on sending an extra academic LOR. I only sent one academic and have been out of undergrad for two years.
