WES Transcript Not Showing Up on OLSAS

[LordBONSAI]

Hi. I studied abroad for a semester, so according to OLSAS's policy, I requested WES to evaluate my transcript in August. So far, I have not seen it appear on my document list. WES record shows they already mailed the transcript. I wrote to OLSAS and got the reply that they would not process WES transcripts until after the deadline. Still, I am a bit concerned since I have no idea whether OLSAS has got the mail from WES. If it has not, will my application be affected?

Same here. I got my entire education outside of Canada.

It seems that the OLSAS will only process WES transcripts after we submit our application, or after the deadline.  I heard this from other posts in international posts.

I asked the same question through SAM and OLSAS replied the same, they also confirmed that the mail from WES was received. You could ask them to confirm that.

I have no idea about the int'l students. I guess for those like me who have wholly or partially studied abroad, our applications may be processed later than students with transcripts only from Canadian institutions. Just finger-crossed this won't diminish our chance of being admitted because of timing.

I thought it says on the transcript requirements that WES is not required for exchange programs? It says: "A WES evaluation is not required for courses taken as part of an exchange program, as long as transfer credits for these courses appear on the home university transcript." I am panicking a little because I went on study abroad/exchange and did not submit WES. Was this a requirement?

I think you're fine. Just make sure you've added the exchange school to your academic background. I requested WES certification because my transcript included a summer session that was not part of the exchange program.

I also did my entire education outside of Canada. I got WES to evaluate my transcript but OLSAS is not showing it as received. I'm hoping it's just a delay. Anyone else in this boat?

WES told me that they send everything electronically to OLSAS.
So you should probably send a message on SAM if it’s been more than a week since WES said they sent it
