Hey guys. I know what you are all going through and feeling with the new cycle approaching, as I was in your position just one year ago. I didn't have anyone to help guide me throughout the application process, so as such, if anyone needs advice or has any questions, feel free to PM me and I will do my best to answer your questions. Good luck this cycle!

Hi DrRoyal Pains! If I withdrew from Physics (didn't get a grade or finish the class) and took it the next semester, do I count it as a retake?

Also, is there any way we can get our transcripts ordered online? Or does it have to be by mail?

1) I believe that if the Physics you withdrew from is on your transcript, then taking it again would count as a retake.

2) That depends on the institution you are ordering a transcript from. Some universities allow transcripts to be ordered online, whereas others require the form to be submitted via fax/mail/in person.

So AADSAS is okay with transcripts being sent via the internet then?

By internet, you mean ordering it online so your school can physically mail it out? If so, yes, that is fine.

@ThetaMoen I agree with @sjv. Transcripts may be ORDERED over the internet depending on the institution, but they need to be PHYSICALLY mailed to AADSAS in order to be processed. They cannot be electronically sent to AADSAS.

Perfect, thanks!

They need to be physically mailed out from the registar's office to be exact.
