A quick definition of independent regulatory agency:

An independent regulatory agency is a type of organization that is created by the government to make sure that certain industries or activities are following the rules and regulations set by the government. These agencies are independent, which means they are not controlled by the government officials who created them. They have the power to investigate, enforce rules, and make decisions about things like safety, fairness, and competition. Their job is to protect people and make sure everyone is playing by the same rules.

A more thorough explanation:

An independent regulatory agency is a type of agency that is created by the government to regulate and oversee a specific industry or sector. These agencies are independent from the executive branch of the government and are designed to operate with a degree of autonomy.

For example, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is an independent regulatory agency that is responsible for regulating the communications industry in the United States. The FCC has the power to enforce rules and regulations related to radio, television, and other forms of communication.

Another example of an independent regulatory agency is the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which is responsible for regulating the securities industry in the United States. The SEC has the power to enforce rules and regulations related to the buying and selling of stocks and other securities.

These examples illustrate how independent regulatory agencies are created to oversee and regulate specific industries or sectors. They are designed to operate independently from the government to ensure that they can make decisions based on the best interests of the public and the industry they regulate.

Sent in my transcript at 6 am today and it’s processing. Think it will be processed before lsac closes tmrw?

I would say it is a toss up, for how much LSAC charges us for everything they are extremely efficient in processing and sending stuff out BUT with a 30% uptake in applicants and the holidays it may be significantly slower unless it is ran through and processed by a computer program. Even if it takes them longer to process it, not like there is anyone at a school to request and review it after LSAC does their thing
