I have sent PTCAS my transcripts and they have already been received. I had also submitted my application. Now, my question is, does PTCAS forward the transcripts to all the PT school designations or do I need to individually send each transcript using my University's website to every designated PT school that I am applying to?
 
Each school / program is different - check w/ your school..I had to send a seperate set of trannys to many schools' grad depts. PTCAS does send your complete hard copy file to each school PT via mail as well as giving them access to your file on line.
 
A lot of the schools I have applied to told me that they may request a transcript after they have reviewed my application. Some have said there will be an additional supplemental application as well after my PTCAS application is reviewed. Like someone else said it really depends on the school. I have tried to keep in contact with all of my school and keep record or what they all say because they are all so different it is hard to keep track!!

Best of luck!!
 
JLCONNER is correct in advising that you keep track...........emails, conversations, with whom you spoke, etc. I have found that not everything on the PTCAS program pages is up to date; required courses, GRE acceptance, Things keep changing and some programs have a hard time keeping up or make changes after they submit info to PTCAS.
