AADSAS and transcript timing

[Kreinstein]

Last Wednesday (6/7) I went to my University's Registrar office with the transcript request form printed out from my AADSAS. As of tonight (6/13) it still shows 0/1 or that my transcript hasn't arrived. Is this a common time frame others have experienced or should I go back to my registrar office and request it again?

Lol I sent it out on the 1st and they told me it'll take me ~2-3 weeks for my transcript to be received. Im hopeful that I'll get my transcript in by tomorrow.

Who is they, your school's registrar or AADSAS?

It is a quite annoying process... the wait for verification once they receive it is even longer

So is there a point in e-submitting before transcripts are even verified? Do dental schools get to see our applications?

I don't know honestly, I've heard it both ways many times... I think it can't hurt to e-submit as early as you can no matter what.
I e-submitted to 5 schools about a week ago but my gpa hasn't been verified yet, and I have only received an email from 1 school saying that my application has been received so far. It said that my application will not be reviewed until all materials are received, though.
Overall, I think if you can e-submit early, you might as well. School's protocol on when they start reviewing things and when is considered early is slightly different across the board probably.

I submitted the order to my school on 6/2 and the transcripts were sent out 6/5. Today, 6/13 I got an email saying they were received. But yeah just so u know processing them can take 2-4 week. Sad;y it's not entirely up to you which batch you end up in. But it doesn't matter. We're all stil very early

Where were your transcripts sent from if you don't mind me asking? One of my colleges in FL sent transcripts 6/6 but considering it's going to the transcript processing center in MA, I'm not sure how much longer it should take roughly for AADSAS to say received.

Sent mine from Michigan. The ones from Illinois from my CC school was sent out and received in like 4 days

My school sent mine out as a PDF and all they made me do is include the number on the transcript request form. AADSAS received it in like 2 days. All I'm missing for my application is my committee letter. I got the same email saying that they won't review my application till my committee letter is sent out.

Is still stand by what AADSAS told me on the phone. Allow 5-7 business days for mailing and 3-10 business days for processing

Processing as in to say received or to verify coursework/GPA?

 

[fit2]

Process to receive. TBH to verify it's probably anywhere from 2-4 weeks

Thank you!

Looks like I got a little ahead of myself, just received the email today that AADSAS has received and processed my transcript. Which means it took around 5/6 business days. Now to wait for the verification :x

So once you get a verification that they have received/processed your transcript, from that point it takes 3-10 business days to verify?

no. once they receive your transcript it takes 2-4 weeks to "verify" your GPA. i've seen as fast as a week and as much as almost a month.

I second @fit2 my transcripts were verified in 5 days.

So, to anyone wondering if they should send and submit everything ASAP, i think you should. Bc when thousands of people start to submit end of June and July (as some have summer classes & want the grades to post) it'll take longer than 2 weeks. July and August will be very busy, so if u submit later on, schools won't look at your app even later in the cycle until it's verified which will take 2-4 weeks and sometimes up to 4- 6 weeks as ADEA mentions in the instructions.
