How do I access and download my official GRE score report online?
Sign into your ETS account, click the Scores section on your dashboard, then select View Official Score Reports to see current and past results. You can download a PDF copy for your own records, but remember that universities only accept scores sent electronically and directly from ETS itself.
Getting your GRE score online is simple once you know where to look on the ETS portal. You just need to log in, navigate to your scores, and pull up your report, though downloading it yourself is only for your personal records.
Steps to View and Download Your GRE Score
| Step | What You Do |
|---|---|
| 1. Log In | Visit the official ETS website and sign in with your username and password |
| 2. Navigate | Click the Scores section on your main account dashboard |
| 3. View Report | Select View Official Score Reports to see current and past attempts |
| 4. Download | Save a PDF copy of your Test Taker Score Report for your own files |
Why Viewing Online Is Not Enough for Admissions
A PDF you download for yourself is useful for tracking your own progress, but it cannot substitute for the official score transmission that universities require. Admissions offices only accept scores that ETS sends to them directly and electronically, so the online report is really a personal reference copy rather than a submission document.
My Advice
Once you have checked your scores online, go straight to your ETS score-reporting dashboard and request that your official scores be sent to each university on your list, rather than assuming your downloaded PDF will count toward your application.
