I notice that people talk about portals that colleges have where you can view if your test scores have been received, admission decisions, etc. None of my colleges have mentioned it. Though, I have not submitted any applications yet. Do I get access to these portals after submitting my application?
Not all schools have them, and they’re usually only available after you’ve applied.
My daughter got info on portals after the schools received her common app.
Got it, that makes sense. Thanks guys!
For UCs, you will receive an email (several weeks to early in 2019), after the application closes with instructions. Depends on the UC, as each school follows a different timeline.
Sometimes it takes a little while to get portal info, too. Like, a week.
