How do you get verified early?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Don't apply early. Apply super early.
 
Make sure you have official transcripts taken care of before you submit. Getting a late transcript can put you back in the queue. Otherwise submit your application as soon as you feel like it is the best it is going to be. The last 2 posters did give you good advice.
 
Attending just one college/university with no post-bacc or graduate work will definitely help.
 
Request transcripts before June.

Complete all your essays, experiences, and have a list of all your grades/unofficial transcripts.

When app opens, fill it in that day, click send... Then go back and ask for recommendations (which you should have asked in April - Unofficially)

the app opens in May.. first day to submit is June 3rd. plenty of time to fill out the app and have it ready to submit on the first day.
 
Submit early, even if it isn't the first day, the earlier you submit (and the earlier your transcripts arrive), the better.

You mentioned no postbacc cause it'll take longer I assume. If the Postbacc finishes around the second week of June and the grades will be submitted around third week of June. The transcript will probably take a week or two hopefully. The verification will probably be done beginning of july assuming all other materials are submitted on time. Any thoughts if it might take longer? I didn't think being finalized in July would hurt much. I'm planning on doing Postbacc this next academic year it accepted.

Application data are not transferred to schools until late June (June 27th maybe?), so you should be golden as long as you can get verified before then. The benefit of submitting earlier is that you have a better chance of being verified before the initial transmission date.
 
Thank you! Do you know if they'll wait for my Postbacc Gpa? I'll have Postbacc unofficial written in primary's for the first two quarter/first semester. I'd assume they would instead of rejecting me or giving me a secondary solely based on undergraduate Gpa. I know some UC's will separate the primary's and treat them separate due to the Postbacc add-on.
