Already applied, should I update transcript after Fall Term?

Post by wingedwolf » Mon Nov 05, 2012 2:32 pm

I submitted all my apps 11/1. There won't be any significant changes in my GPA (it'll be within 0.05 +/-), but it will show 18 more credits. Should I update my transcripts in December when grades are released? If so, how would I even send the updates to schools? Does LSAC automatically do that after you send in the most current transcript?

You would do it through LSAC and they would update the schools but if your GPA won't go up very much I wouldn't bother.. it won't make a difference. Definitely don't if it goes down.

If it goes up absolutely. It basically costs you nothing and can only help.
