Applied for R2-- Submitted the application on Jan 16.

The admissions office reached out to me check on my Visa Status . My Visa was was tricky since I am applying from India

Post that,
They were diligent to check on my transcripts. They already told me that they had not received my transcripts .I gave some proofs of the courier company delivering them in university sealed envelope and they were fine with that.They linked them back to my application.
They immediately got back saying that they needed my original degree certificate.
They said that the original was not mandatory for reviewing my application but was mandatory if i get an admit -- This is something that I haven't heard of . Did any of you guys hear this? or submit your original graduation certificates ?

All the above within 10 days of submitting the application. I get a feeling that they are very diligent and meticulous in reviewing the application. I just love how they are on top of their applicants even in initial steps of the application.

Hey Sharan,

Yeah- you don't need to send in your official transcripts for review, so you can submit unofficial transcripts during the application. But you need to prove this is true when you submit your full application.

I'm glad they were able to workout whether you'd be eligible in such a short time! Good luck!

Also applied R2 - submitted 1/11. No interview invite thus far. Some people were still receiving invites 7-8 weeks from submission though so I don't think there's cause for alarm (yet).

Just got my interview invite.

Little over 2 weeks since I submitted, but they didn't receive my GRE scores until yesterday. For those still waiting to hear, missing materials may impact the timeline for your invite.
