There is a slot to enter "colleges" and one for " undergrad " and both say the same thing when you hit help.

List all institutions, including foreign colleges, attended or planning to attend including non-degree programs. Failure to list all institutions will be considered a violation of your application agreement.


I've attended 4 community colleges and a 1 university to get my degree.

Where do you think I should the information?

Also, on volunteer work and jobs, should what's the layout? In AMCAS everything has a space... this thing just has a big blank space to enter it however you want... should I describe what I got out of the jobs too? Thanks!

You should list every one of the 5 schools that you attended...they should be on the list. I put the same colleges under "colleges" and "undergrad." When you go to enter classes...you have to designate which school you took the classes at. Furthermore, you will have to submit an official transcript from each individual school that you attended (hopefully not all 5 charge for them).

I do not think that there is a specific layout to anything. Formatting is not worth much of your time, because when you print...everything is all condensed.

For my jobs, I entered position/dates/short description.
For my awards/volunteer/etc. I only entered what it was/where and a date.

I don't know if this is any help...but it is what I did on my app. GOOD LUCK. 🙂
