Hi MDRI,

Separate schools have different rules about whether they offer application fee waivers, so I would go look it up on their individual websites. This information may be on the FAQ page.

Unfortunately, I have not heard about waivers for sending GRE scores. I do know there is a GRE fee reduction program (but it is only open to US citizens and permanent residents). If your son has not signed up yet, that could be an option worth looking into.

I would send the scores on the first attempt, as you can see your unofficial scores before sending them and can judge if they meet your standards. If your son is trying to save money, I would recommend preparing for the test well enough that he only has to take it once (as the GRE itself is worth as much as app fees for 2 programs).

Good luck to your son!
