Paper Charter Arrived!!!

CFA Level III
#1

I received the charter yesterday. It was delivered to my work. I wasn’t expecting this fast…

Thank you CFAi.

#2

When did you get approval for your charter? (how long from approval date did you receive the paper is what I’m trying to guage)

#3

I applied the regular member prior to the result. So, I was awarded the charter on the result day, 8/9/2016.

#4

So it took 4 weeks as opposed to the 6 weeks they say, right?

#5

Yes, it seems like it. A week after the result, CFAI sent me a charter award confirmation email. From the memo, it says the printed charter will be mailed to me in the next 6 to 8 weeks. But it didn’t take that long. I am in the US. So it may take a little longer for those who reside in foreign countries.

#6

Thanks for the info. Congrats! I too was a regular member prior to result and was awarded the charter on Aug 9 shortly after results. I am in Canada, so hopefully mine will be here soon :slight_smile:

#7

I got my charter on Tuesday. It is huge 17" x 22"

#8

It’s so big! It makes my degree look like a index card. It’s almost cartoonishly large. My wife wants to frame it but I think I’m just going to keep it in the spiral container until I lose it (lol). The real value is putting those letters behind your name.

#9

What’s your charter number? I’m guessing close to 190k…

#10

My charter number is around 170K

#11

Get out the paper tacks, its going on the wall.

#12

I’m def framing it. I want to be as big of an asshole as possible about this. Spent too many hours in the damn library…

#13

stupid question - do you need to request for them to send it to you upon getting the CFA designation on the CFAI website or will it be autosent

#14

Dear Diary:

#15

^^I’d tell you if your username wasn’t kinda douchey.

#sorry

#16

178k and something is my charter number.

#17

My charter turned up today with an shipping value of $1 for Canadian Customs. I think I over paid Schweser.

#18

Got mine today. New York City, awarded charter on August 11. also in the 178k range

#19

I am just over 181k.

But only received the letter as well as the Blue Booklet that states that I am a difference that matters…

Was expecting something else. Is that still to come? Also got an invitation to the local award ceremony. Will we receive the official Charter document there?

#20

Same question here. Only received confirmation in nice mail. Will Institute send charter separately?
