Checking Order Status on Edubirdie
Edubirdie is an online platform that connects students who need help with their academic assignments with professional writers who can complete the work for a fee. With so many orders placed each day, it’s important for both students and writers to be able to easily check the status of any submitted or in-progress orders. This allows students to know when to expect their completed work and allows writers to stay on top of their workload.
Logging Into Your Account
The first step to check an order status on Edubirdie is to log into your account. You’ll need the email address and password you used to create your Edubirdie account. Once logged in, you’ll be taken to your dashboard page which displays important information about your account.
Finding Your Orders List
To view a list of all your current and past orders, look for the “My Orders” tab near the top of the dashboard page. Click on this to open your orders listing. Here you’ll see an overview of each order you’ve placed, including the order number, subject/topic, deadline, current status, and any additional notes.
You can sort your orders by status (all, in progress, completed, etc.) or filter by subject, deadline date range and more. This makes it easy to quickly locate a specific order you want to check on. The orders are displayed newest to oldest by default but you can also sort alphabetically or by deadline if preferred.
Checking an Individual Order’s Status
To view more details on a particular order’s status, simply click on the order number link. This will open an order details page focused just on that one job. Here you’ll find information like:
Original order details – Subject, type of paper, word count, deadline, etc.
Current status – In progress, not started yet, awaiting review, completed, etc.
Writer assigned (if applicable) – Shows writer’s profile and rating.
Messages – View any correspondence between you and the writer here.
Files – Links to download any drafts or the final completed paper (once finished).
Tracking progress bar – Visual indicator of order completion percentage.
Estimated completion time – Projected finish date if work is in progress.
This provides a more in-depth look at where a specific order is at in the process. Status updates will automatically appear here as the writer advances the work to completion.
Checking Order Status Via Email Notifications
Edubirdie also sends email notifications and reminders about order status changes and milestones. For example, students receive emails when:
A writer is assigned to their order
The writer submits a draft or revision
The final paper is completed and ready for download
A deadline is approaching
An order’s status transitions from in-progress to incomplete, etc.
Writers similarly get emailed as new jobs are posted that match their qualifications. These automated emails provide another handy way to stay on top of order progress outside of directly checking the website.
Using the Mobile App for On-the-Go Status Checks
For students and writers who are frequently on the go, Edubirdie also has dedicated mobile apps available for both iOS and Android devices. Once the app is installed, you can simply log in with your account credentials to access all the same order management features from your phone or tablet.
This allows placing new orders, messaging writers, reviewing order statuses and timelines, downloading completed papers – all from a mobile friendly interface. It’s extremely convenient for quickly checking an order status while away from a desktop computer.
Factors That Impact Order Status Completion
There are a few key things that can affect how quickly an order moves through the different status stages on Edubirdie:
Complexity/length of the paper – More complex and longer assignments take writers longer to research and complete.
Tightness of the deadline – Orders with deadlines more than a week out tend to progress quicker than last minute requests.
Writer workload & availability – Busy writers with a full workload may progress orders more slowly than writers with lighter schedules.
Draft revisions needed – Orders that require multiple rounds of revisions from the student will take additional time.
Weekends/holidays – Most orders see slower progress on weekends when writers have reduced availability.
Payment issues – Delays in a student making their payment can pause an order’s progression.
It’s a good idea for students to factor in these potential impacts when setting expectations around estimated completion dates. Communicating clearly with your assigned writer also ensures everyone is on the same page.
