I was wondering how long it typically took for PTCAS to receive the updated transcript from the Fall. My school sent it in the beginning of January and my status says they have yet to receive it. I sent PTCAS an email, but I was wondering if anyone had any insights on the delay? Thanks!
 
I asked in the GPA thread and some were saying about 3 weeks...My school sent it out on the 5th of January and it hasn't updated yet either if that assuages your concerns haha
 
My fall transcripts were sent 12/22 and received on 12/31 - my GPA was updated by 1/15 !
 
They genrally should have received it within a week or so. It takes a few weeks for them to calculate your new GPAs, but if they haven't even received the transcript yet, I would contact both your school and PTCAS to see if you can find out anything.
 
Whoa I just checked it right now. This morning, PTCAS didn't show the transcript as received. And it now says transcript received last week on the 14th, but no update yet. They're playing mindgames with me.
 
I sent my fall transcripts at the end of December, PTCAS received it 1/5, and it updated 1/22, so just a bit under three weeks. I believe they were closed for Christmas Eve/Christmas Day, NYE/NY Day, and MLK Day, so that has probably added a bit to their processing times.
 
Thanks everyone, I really appreciate the feedback! I just checked and they received it.
