    GRE 

    Request Official GRE Scores

    There is no GRE code for PTCAS. Instead, you must arrange for the Educational Testing Service (ETS) to send your official GRE scores to the correct college code for each designated PT program. The GRE college code for a PT program often differs from the main university code. PTCAS will forward your official GRE scores to a designated program if you arrange for ETS to send scores to that particular program’s “PTCAS GRE code” . Visit the PTCAS Directory for a list of GRE codes. 

    PTCAS will NOT report your official GRE scores to a particular PT program, if... 

    • you use the GRE code for a different program,
    • you do not apply to the program during the 2012-13 cycle,
    • the scores arrive at PTCAS before or after the cycle, or
    • the PT program only has a "university" GRE code

    GRE Status at PTCAS

    Applicants will be able to check the status of official GRE scores sent to PT programs with PTCAS GRE codes by mid-September.  Once received, login to your application to check the status of your GRE scores at PTCAS for each program designation. If received, PTCAS will share your scores with only those programs that you have requested scores be sent to from ETS and have a PTCAS GRE code. If you do not send your GRE scores to the correct college codes, a program may consider your file incomplete, even if PTCAS received your official scores from ETS.

    For scores sent to a university GRE code, contact the institution directly.

    Re-applicants

    Due to differences in program policies, re-applicants must re-submit GRE scores to the correct GRE code for every designated program in PTCAS.

    Early Decision and GRE

    Early Decision candidates in PTCAS must take the GRE and request scores by no later than July 31.
