On the "Education" tab on ERAS, what is the proper protocol for listing educational institutions I attended for, say, a summer. I actually have two main undergrads to list (I was a transfer student), but at one point I also took a summer course at a Community College. Do I list the Community College as well? I know for AMCAS it was important to list every institution/course, but what about on ERAS?

No. List the places you receive degrees from. I guess maybe you can list your transfer school. No one cares about a CC that you took 1 course at

See I went to a Community College for an entire year before transferring to a four year college, so would I have to list my community college on my ERAS since I took two semesters worth of classes there?
 
My advisor told me not to list the CC where I took 1-2 courses. However, if you went there for a year or more, I would say list it- since we have to put dates on everything, if you don't list it and just list the 2nd college it'll look like you finished college in 3 years. Haha... maybe that's not such a bad thing 🙂
 
Are we supposed to list somewhere if we graduated college with honors etc?
