Your GRE scores are issued shortly after you have completing the GRE exam. This exam is essential for students planning to enroll into graduate school. Graduate schools use the GRE scores and undergraduate transcripts when they accept students into their school. The Educational Testing Center (ETS) reports the GRE scores to the graduate schools to which the tester is applying. Requesting a copy of the GRE scores can be done with a phone call, website visit or a mailed-in form.
