Sadly... thats what happened tome for first batch... the guy literally told me "looks like you were one of the first ones verified after we submitted our mail-outs. sorry."
So, no. They will not be able to send yours out till next friday... BUT honestly... it wont make a difference. NO school is reviewing completed apps until AT LEAST the first week of August.

Lucky guys!! One of my schools never sent in an "official transcript" (ie it was missing seal/signature/form) and I had to put in a request 3 times before it finally went thru (June 13, 28, and July 3). Based on that timeframe, I should have had everything verified and mailed out by now... womp womp. Hope to make 3rd batch... but I bet it takes longer than a week to verify GPAs at this point. Which means... I am saying some prayers for 4th batch!!! 🙁

Hah... oh man.
I just called AADSAS and learned that it's taking them ~2 weeks to do the gpa verifications at this point, AND that this Friday, 7/13 is the date of the 4th batch. I asked that twice. It's this Friday, not next (at least according to the AADSAS rep who took my call). 🙁

So what am I missing here? When does the 3rd batch go out if 2nd was on 7/6 and 4th will be on 7/13?

Yea!! Okay I just called a diff rep and this Friday, 7/13 is the 3rd batch (I guess the other guy didn't know what he was talking about or was confused?) but that's great news!
I don't know what submit date counts as the start of "3rd batch" but 6/28 is going to be part of 3rd batch. Those are hopefully going out this Friday.
(So that transcript error msg I received from ADEA was b/c of a transcript I sent in to report professional coursework, but apparently they don't require transcripts for that. I was basically freaking out over nothing.) 😳
Anyway, my app was e-submitted/complete on 6/28 and they are starting the coursework verification process for the 6/28ers today and trying to get as many out for this Friday! He said they should "have them all done by today, but nothing's guaranteed" (though it's nice to know they are working on them.)
And he said they verify them in order, kind of like a 'queue', starting with the 1st app submitted and continuing on, according to the timestamp. I asked him, and apparently I'm #28 in the queue for today, and I e-submitted at around 3:15pm on 6/28. I hope this helps!
-Also, is anyone sending out supplementals now? Or waiting until the main app is officially mailed out? I have my supplementals ready to go but thought it might be weird if they got to the schools before the main app... just wondering, thanks!

If they're ready, send them. It's not weird. It's just another piece of the puzzle they need to start reviewing your app when it gets there. Don't wait for their email conforming receipt of the primary app. That might not come right away.

Same here. I put all of mine in a day or two after e-submitting. It's a dang relief to have them off of my hands.
So if I submitted 7/2 I most likely wont be in the third batch? Is that going to be a problem?
The report that I've been hearing lately is that verification is currently going on for applications that were submitted on 6/27 or 6/28. It depends on where you are in the queue whether or not you will be done in time for the third batch, but if I had to guess I'd say I think you'll miss the cut. It won't necessarily be a problem for you, but it will mean that your application will be up against more competing applications for interview invites.

Update: GPA verified yesterday afternoon, should mail out this Friday! 🙂
FYI: Make sure everything on your app is complete, even if they say your GPA is verified! I listed the community college where I took a professional course, both under "colleges attended" and under "coursework", and during the GPA verification process, AADSAS removed the coursework but did not remove the corresponding college under "colleges attended", so after they verified my GPA it said I was missing coursework. I called them just now and the manager was able to remove the college so my app no longer shows the message. Good thing I called to ask... I would be so upset if this Friday rolled around and my app wasn't sent out b/c they were inconsistent w/ their GPA verifying. I'm not sure why they removed the course in the first place, let alone why they didn't remove the corresponding college at the same time. At least I have the course listed elsewhere in my app so d-schools will get to see it.
Bottom line: just because it says verified doesn't mean you're good to go. Check and double-check and make sure your app really is complete!

(Well after my post I noticed they removed my GPAs and when I called they said they would have to recalculate them... and then they told me it would be done by the end of the day. Thankfully they're already back up. Talk about a roller coaster of emotions!) 🙂
Yay, I'm so excited!!! Good luck!
