As we progress further into the 2025 American Medical College Application Service® (AMCAS®) cycle, we wanted to confirm the following AMCAS Choose Your Medical School (CYMS) tool dates for this year and share reminders of key Application and Acceptance Protocols for Applicants. We encourage you to include these dates in your conversations with your advisees.

Wednesday, February 19, 2025

• “Plan to Enroll” becomes available for accepted applicants to select in the Choose Your Medical School tool, located within the AMCAS application.
  • Only applicants who receive an acceptance offer from a participating school will be able to see and use the tool.

Tuesday, April 15, 2025

• Per the Application and Acceptance Protocols for Applicants, applicants holding more than three offers should narrow their acceptance offers to three, with no limit on the number of alternate list offers they may hold.

Wednesday, April 30, 2025

• “Commit to Enroll” becomes available for accepted applicants to select in the Choose Your Medical School tool, located within the AMCAS application.
  • “Plan to Enroll” is still available for accepted applicants to select during this time.
  • Selecting “Commit to Enroll” does not automatically withdraw applicants from other medical schools.
• Per the Application and Acceptance Protocols for Applicants, applicants should narrow their acceptance offers to one, with no limit on the number of alternate list offers they may hold.

Applicant use of the Choose Your Medical School tool is driven by school-specific policies. Please advise your students to follow each school’s deadlines and requirements, as well as reference the Medical School Admissions Requirements (MSAR), medical schools’ admissions websites, offer letters, and other correspondence.
