Res., please send an electronic copy of the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL).

USC will still accept the computer based exam (min. 250), as well as the paper based exam (min 600). Exam scores taken before April 2010 are not valid. - USC Graduate Schools TOEFL code is: 4852 Dept code: 00- Notarized paper copy of valid TOEFL exam "

N can you please tell me how much time does caapid take to process an application to a university after getting the ECE report from us.N does it start processing even with out the ece report.I had mailed them and they said that if you pay for a particular University and e-submit your application they will process it.
from the time of sending documents to mailing your application to the schools, caapid takes at least 10 days... like if i choose a school today, it will take 5 days at least....and a week more after receiving the ECE, so you can assume 2 weeks.. they dnt process without ECE...N can you please tell me how much time does caapid take to process an application to a university after getting the ECE report from us.N does it start processing even with out the ece report.I had mailed them and they said that if you pay for a particular University and e-submit your application they will process it.

Just read that now... ****!! even i cant send my application if thats the criteria..coz i have around 69 in anatomy ... any chance of waiver??? btw i wasted 75 $ then coz i sent my application via caapid to usc...
Does USC need 75 and above in each section of part 1? I dont know if many people have over 75 in Physio/ Biaochem section. Any one know about this rule?

if they haven;t dispatched yet. which they usually do on thursday night or Friday morning (US time)...try calling them and see if you can cancel it. I don't know if it will work or not...but no harm trying. They may be able to switch some other univ for you...give it a shot.
R u sure of this,have you tried contacting them and asking directly.i also have one score below 75...n i have applied ...cod it be that the minimum score of 75 in each category mean that a minimum score of 75 in part 1 and 2...just hoping?????

Well i sent them a mail ..i ll tell you their exact wordings...they said " we suggest you should apply , but it would be up to the discretion of the committee to review your application and whether or not they accept the scores. " ... so i think this a polite way of suggesting that we are screwed..lol..am just saying .. i dont think the committee would go through all the pain for us , when they already have candidates who meet the criteria and have other good credentials... i dont think i have such extra ordinary credentials that they would make an exception for me... so i am not gonna proceed with it... 75 $ gone..am not gonna spend more on supplemental fees... but the university does reply quickly ..so you mail them ..they mailed me back withing an hour...

Thank you toothgerm.Notarized transcripts are fine..had asked them.
I am very confused abt this application as they have different info in 3 diff places...the CAAPID directory has one, the school website has one and FAQ section on the web site has some more confusing info.
1) Do they need only WES evaluation?
2) Do they need it sent to CAAPID or with supplemental?
3) LOR sent to CAAPID plus them with supplemental?
4) Photo - JPEG or photo paper?
5) How to send electronic toefl score to dept?
6) In FAQ they state application is available online only is that CAAPID application they are referring?
7) Part 1 score in supplemental not direct from ADA?
The school website main page on application procedure is straightforward but other places they have conflicting requirements.

anyone received application complete status?
I received an application complete email on June 23rd from McGoodwin Lauren
after how many days of submitting application , did you get that??
any news guys???
The day after they received my documents they e-mailed me saying that they still have to receive the TOEFL score. They wanted a paper copy and were ready to accept a notarized one. once the received it, they e-mailed me that it was complete.SO I'm sure they'll accept it in a sealed envelope along with other documents.
I think they replied in 2 days' time.
About ECE, I had sent an original one in a sealed envelope.You can e-mail them and confirm.
