Congratulations. Confirm the answer with AADSAS. It's not critical for grade verification, but when your accepted school requests a transcript, you should be covered there.

You should be okay. You could if you wanted to, but otherwise you could always send it later this summer during academic update period or when schools request their own copies of your official transcript
Do you have to fill out supplemental applications ASAP to be considered an early applicant? Or does just your primary application have to be submitted early?

generally, you want to get supplementals done within 1 week, 2 weeks maximum after you receive them. Your app won't be considered complete without it. You usually won't get supplementals until after your primary app has been completed, so the sooner you get that in, the sooner you get verified and sent supplementals, the sooner your app will be completed and sent for review.

If I took an AP test in high school for college credit, how would I include that on the transcript?
I think you can put it as test credit, however it must say on your transcript that you received the AP credit and for what class. My college only put that I received transfer credits and not each individual AP course credit granted individually. Also make sure the schools you’re interested in accept AP. Most don’t. I found it too big of a pain to include so I just omitted mine
Hi everyone,I got confused about my situation and I will be thankful if you can help.
I created an account in AADSAS previous cycle and My university sent official transcript for them, but I didn’t apply to any school because of some financial problems.
I entered my account yesterday and,I have transferred my transcripts from previous cycle to this cycle, but Aadsas told me that I have been considered as a re-applicant!!
Since I didn’t apply for any school previous year,How can I fix this situation?Does anybody have any idea?
Thanks a lot.

For honors courses, how are they listed on the transcript in terms of subject? Would it be "honors core"? More specifically, it's an honors seminar class. And if I'm taking an honors thesis class, would it fall under the same subject?
Looking at RE-APPLICANTS . I agree check with AADSAS.
I am guessing this is all technical. You didn't actually send in an AADASAS application last year, but you did have information sent to them from the previous cycle that could roll over. Information available to transfer includes your academic transcript.
Technically, you are an AADSAS reapplicant but with no previous submissions. Other schools won't consider you a reapplicant to their program because they never got your AADSAS application.
Many people fill out a previous year's AADSAS but don't submit it so they could get "a feel" for data entry into AADSAS. They aren't reapplicants... just well prepared.
Yep, I did this. Definitely made the whole process much easier to understand and saved me a lot of stress. If you have the chance to get a headstart, take it.
Is the AADSAS page down? Not able to log in here.
Didn’t seem to have any issues here
same for me

I have a question about letters of recommendation. I have a committee letter submitted to my application, but I'm still waiting on a letter from a dentist. Can I submit my application without the second letter and then add it later? Or should I wait until I have all of the letters before submitting?
You should wait
If you submit your application to one school, can you change your personal statement for the other schools you haven't yet applied to?
N
No +2
When were these letters submitted?
I submitted the requests on 5/17
One of my evaluators said she submitted it and let me know by email. That was on 5/29.

For AADSAS, can I list my hobbies (such as ceramics and at-home nails) under extracurricular activities? I do have descriptions and hours of these hobbies. Also, I have other experiences for this section, but I was just wondering if I could include my hobbies to show some of my other interests.
Good question! I think if you did them for a school club/event then I think you could include them in the activities section. Otherwise maybe mention that in the manual dexterity prompt, if not related to school. or elaborate in your interviews!
That should be fine. You could ask and see if he submited on official school letterhead as well. As long as he submitted it from his email all should be okay

If a school is asking for courses to match their prereqs but I'm not allowed to use AP courses should I leave it blank?
For example, I used AP credits for gen chem and Boston doesn't want AP credits so do I not match any courses to that prereq?

Might be a good idea to email them and ask what they’d prefer
I'm just realizing that this is an issue with a couple of schools and really hoping that they just take my AP credit and DAT score cause retaking a year of gen chem sounds miserable!
It does! I’d definitely reach out
You should be okay
There should be an update period during the summer that you can resubmit your transcript for schools. AADSAS will send the updated grades once verified
Mid june isn't late at all. I applied in mid-June. Even July isn't bad either. As long as the 1EC is 1EC and not stretched out to multiple experiences I don't see it being an issue. You can elaborate in the text box as well, or in interviews.

Hi everyone, I am new here and I am currently working on my application to submit it next week.
I was awarded the financial assistance, but I have to submit the app to at least 3 schools by June 14 and I wasn't planning on submitting this early. So, am I able to submit it now and then request one last letter of rec later in July?
Also, that last LOR is from the dentist I shadowed who asked me to write the LOR, so how can I do that? any advice on writing LORs or resources for templates?

I believe you cannot add additional LOR's once you submit your application. What you'd have to do is have the dentist send the letter to schools from their work email signed on official letterhead if possible. I will also say that it's highly discouraged to write a letter for yourself, and I was even asked in an interview if I saw any of my letters that were submitted. Frankly, if they're not willing to write it, I would just avoid sending the letter if possible.
And a lot of schools don't require a dentist LOR anyways. Double-check each school's requirements before applying. Generally, 2 science, 1 supervisor(work, volunteer, research) and a non-science will cover almost all requirements.

I submitted a supplemental essay, except there is a random comma floating at the very end of the essay. Sort of like this:

Is this a big deal?!

Do you need to disclose academic/non-academic investigations that you were found NOT RESPONSIBLE for and received no disciplinary actions during an interview? Do dental schools specifically request disciplinary records or internal student conduct records?

You should be fine. Just try to double and triple check everything going forward

When putting prerequisite courses in for each school, should I include all courses that satisfy the pre-req? For example for organic chemistry should I include both orgo I and orgo II or just orgo II?
Wait for the letter
