Waiting for ATT

by abeka24

Hi everyone, I'm new here so if I'm posting this in the wrong forum, please forgive me. I was wondering how long recent grads have had to wait for their authorization to test. Our school made us apply in a group and they sent all of our paperwork in together. That was May 19 and I still have not recieved my ATT, but I know a lot of the other graduates from my school have, so I'm starting to get concerned. If anyone could give me an idea of how long they waited, I would appreciate it.
Thanks!

Don't feel bad. I'm from Arkansas and ours was received by boards on 5/21/08. It's now 6/4/08 and we're all in PENDING status... we haven't even received our temporary licenses yet!!! We will get those before they notify Pearson to send us our ATTs

They say you need to take boards within 27 days of graduation to stand the best chance of passing... well, by the time we get our ATT it will be past that. Don't feel bad you guys aren't alone!

I waited about 3-4 weeks to get my ATT. I did all the paperwork online.
I graduated 4/24/08, got my ATT on 5/26/08 and tested on 5/30/08.

Just be patient! While your waiting...study!
