When do GRE scores send?

I applied to 15 schools. Applications were submitted, and GREs ordered, anywhere between 11/25/16 and 12/30/16. Some schools from every week in this stretch have said they haven't received my GRE scores yet, including Carnegie Mellon, which the order receipt confirms was sent 11/25/16. Is their site slow? How long, especially during these two holiday weeks, does it take for the scores to get to schools?

I applied to Carnegie Mellon as well, and my scores are listed as "Awaiting" on my application checklist. I sent the score in November. I emailed them a few days ago, but I haven't heard back.

Maybe it's a problem with their application system since there are multiple cases.

Good to hear. Since it mentions that their site is slow to change things like that, and you're having the same problem, I'd bet that it's on their end and that they have the scores.

Just got an email back from the Student Program Coordinator of the Physics Department:

The status of the scores changes when we verify it on our side. We are still going through thousands of pieces of mail, organizing it. It usually takes several weeks following the deadline for us to verify them. As long as you uploaded your score report to your application, it will be reviewed by the committee in the coming weeks. If you did not upload your score report, email it to me asap and I will do so. If we are missing anything, I will be in touch with you. Thanks!
