I just submitted my AADSAS application and paid the application fee- but i have a question. do I have to send additional application fees to each dental school I applied to? or, is all of that included in the AADSAS application fee? thanks for your guys' help! 👍

You send a fee for AADSAS, and then you have to send a separate fee to each school. Some want you to send it when an admissions officer contacts you while others want you to send it when AADSAS sends your application out.

how do you know which schools want you to send it in with the aadsas and the schools that want you to send it when they contact you?

A rather helpful list can be found at:

http://www.adea.org/AADSAS/webdocs/AppInstrBooklet.pdf

You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to open the file, and in case you don't have that then here is the website at which you can obtain a free copy:

http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/alternate.html

Once you have opened up the document the list starts on page 20. I cross-referenced what was on this list with my schools and everything checked out alright - but don't rely soley on their word - follow up with all of the schools you are applying to so as not to miss a vital detail.

I was just wondering, when it says that these are the things you have to send it with your application, and it includes the transcript and LORS and DAT scores, but we've already sent these to the aadsas. So I should disregard everything and just see if I owe them a check or not? Thanks in advance

Yes, If under the required materials to be send to the schools at the same time that you submit your application includes items that were send in to AADSAS previously, the schools will have already recieved them when they recieve your application. If the only item under "submit X items at the same time you submit your application" is a fee for that school, just send off the fee around the time that they will get your AADSAS packet. It is advisable to have your AADSAS number when sending payments to individual schools so that you can include your AADSAS number with the check to help insure that it gets into your file. Hope that helps.
