I read some of your other posts and you shouldn't take too big a chance with waiting since you need the math GRE. Once that option is gone you'll be in a tough spot. I don't know if it'll be any help, but I'm also using the math GRE to complete a bachelor's (BA for me) in math at Excelsior in order to try and be an actuary cheersmate . Small world! In my case I saw a huge danger in waiting any longer. So I'm "locking myself in" this week, most likely tomorrow. Graduating under "grandfathered rule" is normal and it shouldn't weird you out.
Good point. I can't really imagine anything too bad happening without the BYU transcript being considered in my unofficial evaluation.
It's cool to see there's another person pursuing the actuarial profession on here. I'm taking the CPCU 540 exam soon. (to satisfy one of the VEE requirements)
Thanks for clarifying the academic policy issue.

The BYU exam has not been evaluated by ACE. So I am not sure if they will readily accept it without some period of consideration.
