<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>Just wondering...Is it common to send in your Fall 2008 grades? I'm not sure what schools require it. I think I saw on the MIT site that they want you to send in an updated transcript once its available.</p>
<p>Any thoughts?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>If you are a borderline candidate, some schools' admission-committee may ask to look at your fall grades.</p>
<p>Otherwise, it's not part of their consideration. (But just like college-admissions, after acceptance to a grad-program, you still have to send official copies of your final transcripts -- no slacking off allowed!)</p>
<p>Some schools ask for the fall and last spring semester grades after you're accepted. Sort of like a proof of graduation. Others use it to check if you've passed some of their course pre-reqs for the program.</p>
<p>hey guys, what do u think about doing the academic update through sophas?</p>
<p>my gpa has been bumped up a bit and i want to make my file as strong as possible...not for admissions, but for merit scholarships.</p>
<p>but all my apps are in. </p>
<p>i guess it can't hurt...</p>
