I am currently applying for optometry schools in the 2012 cycle and I have a couple of questions.

My first is:
How long (from transcripts being sent) does it take for transcripts to show up on optomcas?

My second is:
Have any optometry schools contacted any of you for interviews?

Thanks so much! This is a very exciting time!
 
My transcripts took 3 weeks to appear on OptomCAS. My GPA was just calculated this week and I got an email saying my application will be mailed out to my schools this week! So hopefully we'll be hearing from schools for interviews soon 🙂

how many days is it from the day all your transcript show up to when its mailed out?

I was on the same boat 3 weeks ago! I got an interview invite last week and one just this week. Hang in there! 🙂
 
I was wondering how long after you submitted your application did it take for them to calculate your GPA and receive a conformational email?

Overall, it took a total of about 4-5 weeks for my transcript, including GPA calculations, to be complete. It really doesn't take long, but it feels like years!
 
It took 4 weeks or so for my transcripts to be received and the GPA calculated.

My OptomCAS was successfully submitted on August 8th and I have been invited to two interviews in the past two days.
