OTCAS states it takes 2-4 weeks, depending on how busy they are. If its close to a lot of school deadlines, then its likely to take the full 4 weeks. On the other hand, I submitted mine at the end of August and it took only one business day to be verified, so I guess if they're not busy it can be much quicker than that too

OP, it is all about timing, I had mine verified in the beginning of August and it was done the same day, as in within a couple of hours. Keep in mind it is done faster if you send in your transcripts time in advance and then finish your online application.

Thank you both for your replies - much appreciated. Has anyone else applied in September? Thanks!

Hi Krl914. I submitted my Otcas late at night September 12. By 8:00 am (PST) I had received an email notifying me that my application was verified. I suspect the verification process takes less time if you wait to submit until all your transcripts show up as received. Hope that helps and good luck!

I submitted mine about a week ago (September 17th I think) and it took about 12 hours to verify. Although, all of my transcripts and everything had already been received so I think that helped too.

Just an update on how long it's taking to verify applications:

I submitted mine Oct 2nd, and it was just verified today, Oct 8th
