Don't know about the verification process but! one of my recommenders got a letter early this morning saying that the recom hadn't been received - and she had submitted it last week! She called and according to their office, the recommendation part of the app is acting up.

OK my second recommendation was just submitted! However, my status is the following:

Your application is currently incomplete. We are missing your letters of recommendation.

Recommendations Verified by Office: No

Any idea what the verification process is and how long it takes to verify LoRs?

Just got this. Once again best of luck to everyone:

Interview Decisions
· The Admissions Committee will begin to release interview invitations on Wednesday, October 29th and will continue this process through Wednesday, November 12th.
On November 12th all applicants not invited to interview will receive notification via the online application system that they have been denied admission to Chicago GSB for the Class of 2011.

Yea I think they want the official sealed ones. Which is interesting since the app didn't say that they needed the transcript until after interview decision was released...I'll have mine sent tomorrow...

I do remember the site said official Transcript wasn't necessary until you come for interview. I had mine sent anyway because my undergrad provides them for free and I needed to do one for Haas. Did Chicago at the same time.

Yeah, call your undergraduate institution(s) registrar's office and tell them what you need to do. It should be pretty easy as they do it all the time. You may even be able to do it online depending on how advanced the school's technology is.

What are people's status' showing? I am still showing incomplete, I assume it's because of the fact they don't have my official GMAT scores yet or transcript. I sent my GMAT scores months ago-- anybody else having a similar status?

My app just went complete:

Your status has changed to "Complete". Your application under review by the admissions committee. Although your application is under review this does not mean that all "official" documents such as GMAT/TOEFL or official transcripts have been received. Please login to your application and check the printable status report to view all received items. A final decision can not be rendered without all official transcripts and score reports.

I believe that official transcripts don't have to be provided until the interview -- as in I can just take sealed envelopes. Is this correct?

Also, I selected the GSB as one of the 5 schools to send GMAT scores to, so I don't need to send them official scores, right? Right now my status says test scores haven't been verified.

My app's complete too. woo.

Also, soni I dont think you need to resend your GMAT scores...they should have them if you selected them as one of the 5 schools. Maybe give them a phone call to verify?

This better be the case. Otherwise, what's the point of the official report? GMAC!!!!! *shakes fist*

For what its worth, for the last two years running, I seem to recall people getting all worked up over the "status" of their application - tests verified, tests not verified, etc. I think that in all but 1 case, everything was absolutely fine, so don't get too worked up - at least not yet anyway.
