How many years after college graduation do they stop checking your college transcript/GPA at the bulge bracket banks?

If you lateral into a finance job at a bulge bracket investment bank after 2 years at a boutique firm, does the BB bank stop asking you for a copy of your college transcript/GPA? How many years of work experience(minimum) until the big banks don't care about your college GPA/transcripts anymore?
