How do you get your transcript sent to aamc? Is there a form or do you just call your school and say hey send aamc my transcript?

AAMC has a transcript request form that they say giving to your school to send with the transcript helps them link it to your account.
As far as getting the transcript from your school, every school is different but I think the general pattern is the registrar's webpage usually has some type of form to fill out and mail/fax/email to them with the AMCAS transcript request form.
Keep in mind there is about a 7-10 day processing period at AMCAS for transcripts so if you want to get your application verified ASAP, I would pay for any rush options that your registrar has available if possible.
can someone link the transcript request form? I'm trying to find it...with no luck so far.
You don't need the form. They received all of mine without it.
Log into your AMCAS and on the right side of the main menu it has a print transcript request form button.
thanks!
Does it really take that long to process it? Because it takes 3-5 business days for them to receive it and with a 7-10 day processing period that's automatically 15 days before the application can be looked at for verification....
Has anyone's transcripts taken that long to be processed?
thanks!

Sent forms to my school May 22, they Fedex'd it May 28th, arrived at AMCAS May 30th, and processed today June 6.
Yea i guess i was just confused. I did everything accordingly a few weeks ago (middle of May) and my transcripts never got marked as received or processed. Just called my school today and they didn't send them out yet. So...I guess it's not aamc's fault, it's my school. Now I just feel like i'm totally screwed for this application cycle.
Don't worry about it. You'll be a week and a half late at most. Remember, AMCAS is going over your app and sending them to schools on the (I think) 28th. You'll be a couple days after the FIRST DAY. Oh, no!
Seriously, don't worry about it.
i'm just a borderline candidate you know so it's really critical i stay on top of the app.
sorry for freaking out i know this is very much "annoying neurotic premed" behavior but i just feel crushed.

Now I just feel like i'm totally screwed for this application cycle and my heart feels like it's going to burst. I've been working 100+ hours a week and killed myself to stay on top of this application and now i'm effed because i can't submit Monday like I had planned. My school also takes a freaking month after submission to send in committee letter so I won't be complete until freaking august or something. I'm really screwed.
Man that sucks, I'm just constantly badgering the people that I need to send things like recs and transcripts, after getting screwed in high school (Late LORs, midyear report never sent till march after decisions are basically made). People tell me I'm paranoid, but I've found whenever you need to rely on someone else there are going to be delays and/or complete failure to submit.
You'll be fine though if you're verified in July. My school is sending committee letters mid July at the earliest submitted the form in April.
Seriously. Relying on anyone results in displays of pure incompetence. I wanted to be considered "early." Too late for that, you think? I will have everything else done by middle of next week. Just waiting for transcripts to get in. Are e-transcripts received faster than paper ones?
