Hi All,

I am applying in Round 3. I had a query. Do I need to send official transcripts before submitting my application or can I send them at later stages?

Hey!
I actually havent submitted my official transcript yet.
The university told me that once you are admitted you can submit it.Till then you would need to upload a scanned copy of your transcript in your application :)

Ye, i remember seeing what MBAitiss said on their website. :-D

Hmm, maybe they've changed their stance. I recollect receiving an email stating that my transcript has still not been received, and that my app would be considered only after I sent it in. But that was about a year and half ago, so maybe things have changed.

But yeah, if you've got a written confirmation from them, no worries. Here's what's on their website: https://merage.uci.edu/FulltimeMBA/Conte ... ecklist/64

Hi Guys,

I submitted my application on Dec 12th. I received a mail on 16th to send scanned documents and I sent the documents on 18th.
I mailed the adcom after the recommendations were submitted but I dint receive any reply, probably due to holiday season.
Last week I got a mail saying my toefl scores and transcripts are yet to be received. Since then I have mailed the adcom four times, but no reply!
I called and spoke to Juliet last friday, and she said she would update the application status. The status still reflects that my toefl scores and transcripts are yet to be received.
I called ETS and had my scores resent to 4589, U CA graduate management. I called the school again yesterday only to be directed to the voice mail ( it was 11:30 am in CA).

I feel I am not getting enough response from the school.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

UC Irvine - thanks but no thanks. Turned down the offer - hopefully someone from GMAT Club gets the slot!
