Will my scores arrive in time?

[kimyoonsuns]

Hi all,

 

I am taking the GRE on January 5. The general grad school deadline is February 1 for the civil engineering department.

The website FAQ indicates that students should take the GRE at least one month before the deadline to allow room for processing time. Should I have any concern that my scores might not arrive in time?

The grad school app requires an electronic copy if that matters. 

Thank you!

If you're taking the GRE in the normal computer format, you'll be able to download a pdf of your results as soon as you get them (after about a week). So if you need to upload them to your application, you'll be fine. As for the scores being sent, 27 days is probably enough time. If you're worried, you can always check with the grad school admissions office to see if they've received them a bit before the deadline.
