foreverPA Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Hello everyone! Since it's the weekend and I can't call CASPA, I am planning to submit in the next few days. I'm a little confused between "complete" and "e-submitted". I have at least 2 references so far, finalizing my personal statement, wrote out all the achievements/experiences. Basically I'm done except for some schools have their supplemental app of essays. Here's my question. I am still waiting on my transcripts to be received at CASPA (in route). Could I just submit my application to one school already even though they want a "complete date," does it mean that once CASPA receives those transcripts, then that school will see I have a "complete" application then it will get verified then the school can look at it? Or do I have to wait for them to get received by CASPA so then it would be complete and then I can submit?? Hopefully I'm making sense. Like if I have everything done on my part, can I just submit my app, even though my transcripts are still in route? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliB Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 This is all clearly spelled out in the CASPA FAQ for e-submitting and completing your application, and how programs receive your application (unless I am misunderstanding your question). You can e-submit whenever you are done and intend to make no more edits. You won't be able to after you e-submit to one or more programs. Your application won't be complete ... or reviewed (or transcripts verified) until they have 2 LORs, ALL of your transcripts, and your payment. Schools typically don't look at applications until they meet the program's "expectations" -- complete, verified, whatever -- but they CAN as soon as it is e-submitted and paid for (again, see those details in the CASPA FAQ).

Badgers Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Just a random aside: this page is very helpful for keeping track of what each school's deadline means ( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
