I sent the transcripts from each about 2 weeks ago and still haven't gotten notified from TESU that they received them. Does anyone know how long this process normally takes? I'm trying to make the March graduation and i'm worried that not everything will get sent and added to my evaluation in time.
From what others have said, Saylor and OnlineDegree can be slow in sending transcripts out, but ACE is usually pretty quick. I'd usually get a notification that they were received by TESU within a week or so. It would still take like a month for them to be reviewed either way.
However, keep in mind that this is the 9th of January and a lot of folks were off work for the last week or two of December. So there is bound to be a huge backlog of stuff to process, which is undoubtedly going to add delays. Heck, I submitted my graduation application a few days before Christmas and didn't receive confirmation that it or the fees were received until mid last week, so they are clearly a bit behind.
If the only thing you have pending for graduation is those transcripts, you should be in good shape. Worst case you can always call or open a ticket with the school to let them know what's going on and ask for advice. They may be able to confirm that they've been received, or if not they may be able to let you know how long it usually takes and/or whether you need to request the transcripts to be re-sent. If they are there, they should be able to expedite transcript processing since they are needed for the degree audit. The important bit is to make sure they know so they can keep an eye out and be ready on their end.
You might also want to check with each provider to confirm they have been sent. I believe the status check from ACE will even show when the transcripts were opened by the destination school, and by whom.
Working on: Debating whether I want to pursue a doctoral program or maybe another master's degree in 2022-23
