After you've submitted your application, there's no way to make slight changes to any part of your application, correct??? I just submitted two days ago, and it's still processing, but I was reviewing my personal statement this morning and there is a minor typo that I didn't catch before I submitted. I went into the statement and made the change, since I still have access to the personal statement, but I'm not sure if that will reflect in the application I sent out to all the schools. Does anyone know, since it's still processing and not verified??
 
Thank you for responding! So since I've gone in and fixed the correction on my statement, will this be the version that osteopathic schools see? Do I need to email AACOMAS or withdraw my application to make the change final?

If I remember correctly, others have mentioned in the past that changes to AACOMAS applications are relayed to schools every Tuesday.

I recommend reading the Applications Instructions and any FAQs provided by AACOMAS.

This is what I thought too but it's because I saw someone mentioned it here. But the question I have is that if you make a correction to the PS, will adcom look at the new PS? I have this question because I feel like they are allowing us to make corrections so that we can update the schools on ECs and stuff.
