How long does it take for an application to get processed?
And I'm confused. I sent my transcript and SAT scores at the same time, but they only received my transcript. How long does it usually take them to receives my scores?
Also, how long until I can long onto the Howdy Portal?
Any answers are appreciated
Transcripts and SAT scores come from two different places, so it is not unusual they didn't arrive at the same time.
when you receive your UIN from TAMU you can log into Howdy. It will take about a week to 10 days after application submission until you get your UIN in the mail.
Just a note from prior experience:
When my daughter applied a couple of years ago, her SAT scores never showed up despite the fact that College Board sent them to TAMU. It turned out that when she took the test, she transposed two of the numbers on her Social Security number. TAMU had the scores all the time, but couldn't match them up with her app. because the SS# was wrong. So, if your scores don't show up, check the score report you receive from College Board to make sure you wrote down the correct SS#!
