Errrrrrrr, okay, I did this on my AMCAS, and I'm just waiting on them to respond, and I'm getting kind of worried.

I'm in my last semester, but I'm taking a 6-week online course at a separate college (community college) just because I didn't have time to take it at my main university. This is a college that I have JUST registered for, this semester, so there are no previous courses. My transcript would be blank.

On my "Institutions" section, I went ahead and named my community college, even though I would basically put Sept. 2011 - Oct. 2011 for start and end dates, and then put that I didn't anticipate a degree because, well, I am just taking the course to fulfill a core (AHST credit) at my main uni.

Then, I just put in my information in coursework, and designated that it was Future/Current. However, what scares me is that they would probably expect some form of a transcript since I listed it as an institution, but I don't have one (yet). I think I could only put courses in of the schools I placed as my "institution"...should I put in a Transcript Exception Request? Should I just get the community college to send in a blank transcript, because at least it'll show that I am registered for the course? Luckily, my schools deadlines haven't creeped up on me yet, so I still have time...

Confused and panicking a bit. Help!

You would need to send in the final transcript when the class is finished. It is fine to put future coursework in the AMCAS. Yes, community colleges do have a transcript service. If there is no classes currently on your transcript... well I suppose you wouldn't need to send one in to AMCAS, but if your CC could print out a blank transcript, that would also suffice if you are paranoid.

You need to put in courses from all postsecondary institutions that you attended for which you received / will receive a grade. You are expected to send final transcripts from all of them.

I would not panick unless you foresee yourself not finishing the course.
