ETS have introduced Online GRE Score reporting feature. It makes reporting GRE Scores to additional schools much easier. But, you will need to have Credit Card to report the scores using the new Online GRE Score Reporting tool. I had written in detail about GRE Score Reporting, recently ETS has introduced Online GRE Score forwarding, which is more easy to use.
Score Reporting Time – After GRE Test
Based on test format score reporting time varies.
- Computer Based GRE Exam – 10 to 15 days after you take test
- Paper Based Exam – About 6 weeks after exam date
Above two options are for scores reported to schools at the end of the exam.
Additional GRE Score Reporting
Usually, students have no clue on which school they will attend. So, then end up selecting 4 schools they have heard about through freinds. After final list of schools are selected, then GRE scores have to reported to those universities. Scores can be reported by 3 different ways
- Online GRE Score Reporting
- Mail or Fax
- Phone

I need a little help.
How can i order an additional GRE score report to myself, i took GRE on 18th of march this year and i haven’t received it yet.
Hi.. This is Farhan. I took GRE exam in october 2012 and I also got my online scores but on my GRE Account the message “This report is not valid for transmission to an institution” is displayed. What does that mean?
Apropos Shipra’s comment on 27 Dec 2011 which says
”
Guys i am in a big trouble, please guide me. I took my GRE two days back, i.e. on 26th december 2011. After the test was over and i got my scores on the screen, i found my scratch paper full, and as there was no space to even add up the marks to get a clear idea of my score, in the anxiety i inadvertently took my passport and used a small corner of the last page to add up the marks. I had no idea that it is regarded as a malpractice. So the people at the center told me that i have committed an offence and now it will be reported to ETS. I explained the whole situation to them, apologising, saying that its only human to err. ”
Can anyone help me in knowing the verdict of ETS in this type of fallacy , as I also committed the same mistake. Does ets consider the score or not?

I gave my computer based GRE 3 days back. I am sure I didnt cancel my score. I chose 4 universities at the test center. Now when I am trying to assign few more universities by means of online score reporting, it is not directing me to any page for payment. A page is opening which says information you entered is not correct, your request can not be processed. I didnt enter any information at all to cross check. Kindly help me. I faced issues with my TOEFL scores also. I chose 4 universities 2 days before exam. Even after neither myself nor the universities received any score reports. WHen I sent an email regarding my concern they sent reply that no orders are placed against the test taken on that day. I dont know why. Kindly tell me what might be the problem. They are not lifting the international call as well which is a seperate number.
