So the website mentions that we need to send the transcript as well. I sent an email for clarification to USC and they mentioned the same as well. But I wanted to see if R1 applicants and others are sending it or not
I have not sent yet, going to send an email to my college today asking them to mail it to USC
This is the response I received from USC
“ Upon submitting your completed application to our program, please request for your official transcripts with your undergraduate institution to be sent to USC. Your official transcripts will be received by our main processing center, and it takes 2-3 weeks for review and verification by our Graduate Admissions Office before it is placed in your application file. By delaying the submission of your official transcripts, it may delay the decision process.”
