According to the FAQs of VirtualEval's website, LORs are purged at the end of each cycle, but does anyone know if it's common practice among med schools to archive applicants' VirtualEval LORs for some number of years, or do they also purge all copies that they download from VirtualEvals? And if they do archive LORs, how many years do they usually archive them for? Thanks.

They get your letters through AMCAS. They may save them with the rest of the application. They may not. Maybe I'm just failing to see how this is relevant to the admissions process. You have to resubmit letters each year you apply. So why does it matter if they are archived?
