Did a search here and on aamc.com and came up empty-handed.

Anyone know what happens if we add a school post-verificaiton? I know we have to re-certify and re-submit, but does that mean re-verify?

Right, except for the cheap.

No new verification process...you're just adding a school that will get a copy of your already verified application.

To reassure yourself, if needed, email AMCAS or call them.

I just did that and did not have to re-verify, so don't worry about it.
 
are you sure we do not have to go through that active/verfied/processed junk again? I added two schools and once I hit "FINISH" on the medical school list page I have to recertify my application in order for the change to go through. I am just worried that I have to go through that whole process again, becasue from what I hear it now takes about four weeks for the applications to get processed. Thanks :scared:
 
"Recertify" is when you promise that you're still telling the truth on the application. There isn't any re-verification.
 
Hi, I did a search on adding schools later and this thread came up. I have a couple questions about adding schools after submitting AMCAS.

1) How much does it cost per school? Is it more expensive to add them later?

2) I am (re)taking the August MCAT. I am thinking of adding schools based on my score, but would it be too late to add schools then? I mean, it would be mid-October and I would only get secondaries from those schools then, so does it make sense to do delay the process even though it is getting pretty late already?

Thanks!
