I emailed the schools I applied and asked them if they received my DAT score from ADA.. and this is what I got

from UCLA : Please note that the distribution of printed score reports of all kinds to dental schools was discontinued as of 4/30/08. All scores are now sent electronically, and therefore, I cannot view scores until after I receive the AADSASapplication.

from Penn: we stop receiving any official copy from ADEA. Right now we did not receive you AADSAS application yet, I will download your DAT online once we received your AADSAS application. Your DAT is ready for download, I already check it online.

so I guess ADA is using a different system to send our scores to schools....well I guess they are not really sending but allowing the schools to download our scores..
but I'm not completely sure about this system..

does anyone know what the heck is going on?
 
If this is true, it makes me very glad I'm still paying an extra $25 per score report sent to each dental school.
 
UCLA and Penn have horrible grammar!
 
I agree..
I copied and pasted the emails I received from them..
my grammar sucks too.. I should join their team

Yeah, same here. I'm very glad to be paying $500 for my 20 schools. Yay!

I took the DAT twice, second time was in August after submitting ADSAAS, so I sent scores twice. I think my credit card cried in pain at the abuse.
 
ahh so that means that they're sending the scores to all the schools electronically?
 
I was told by Stony Brook that they get them immediately as long they have been authorized to receive them.
 
Damn, $25 for somebody at the ADA to click "send".

Somebody is making a killing
 
Is there any way to see if your official scores have been sent out to schools? (other than contacting the schools directly)
