Additionally, if asked to provide a word count for the essay that you submit for review, you certify that the word count that you provide is an accurate reflection of the "total number of words" in your essay, where the "total number of words" is calculated by counting up the total number of words that you have written in your essay. Note that the "total number of words" does not include the number of words in the prompt that you are responding to, nor is this the same number as the word limit of the prompt that you are responding to. If the word count provided by you is inaccurate, Veritas may refuse to conduct a review of your essay, or invoice you for additional charges.
By using the Essay Management Dashboard to submit an essay for review, you certify that only one essay is included in the file you submit for review, and that essay is responding to the prompt and school under which you have classified that essay in the Dashboard. Veritas may refuse to conduct a review of your essay, or invoice you for additional charges, if the content of the essay submitted for review via the Dashboard is not reflective of how it has been categorized within the Dashboard.
Delivery of Edited Essays Our reviews are returned to customers via email. Please note that an order is marked as "received" when the order is processed by our payment system, and sent to us by automated email, NOT the time at which the order was placed by the customer. The guaranteed turnaround time for an order starts when the order is marked as "received."
