Send GRE Scores: How to Send GRE Scores to Universities

Wondering how to send GRE scores to universities? The first thing one needs to know is that the test fee includes the GRE scorecard for up to four colleges. If a candidate has opted for a computer-delivered test, they will be asked to select the score receivers at the test center. In case a paper-delivered test type has been opted for, the candidate will need to select the score receivers at the time of registration.

The score reports indicate both your official report that comes after giving the GRE and the reports you will send to various universities. You also get a 'ScoreSelect' option which helps you choose scores you can send to chosen institutions. You can send the best GRE scores with this handy system. If you wish to send your scores to more universities or want to send your scores after the day of the test, you will need to pay US$35 (approximately INR 2,905) per recipient to order additional reports. However, colleges don't view the scores unless the complete application for admission has been sent.
