Free GRE Score Report

[jetlag]

Hi,

I figured somebody here must know the answer to this question.

You know how when you take the GRE they let you choose up to 4 institutions to send your scores to for no charge? Don't they also send one to your undergrad school? Because I remember when I took the test your undergrad institution was one of the first things you have to indicate before starting the test, and in the official score report your undergrad school is indicated as one of the score recipient. So I was wondering, can you use this score that they send to your undergrad school to apply there? So in a way you're getting 5 free score reports, 1 for your undergrad school + 4 others.

I'm asking because I originally thought I was gonna apply to 4 schools, but if I get to send another GRE score for free might as well apply to 5 schools.

That's a question you would have to ask your institution. You can ask your grad office if they can access the GRE score report when it is sent to your undergrad office. Some will, some won't.

Yeah, ask the department you're applying to if they can access your scores.
