Hello-

I was reading the instruction to send app procedures on AADSAS and wondered how you guys fax unofficial DAT scores when you cannot send DAT scors almost at the same time you apply to AADSAS because
on the website of AADSAS, dental schools want applicants to send OFFICIAL DAT scores at the same time of applying AADSAS.
If I can fax unofficial scores to schools, can I send application to AADSAS in June 05 and the scores in September 05 to schools?

Plus, I am an int'l student now but I will be a temporary permanent resident in fall 05.(hopefully by september)
In this case, can I let AADSAS know the change of my visa status?

I know specially the last inquiry is not so common.. but I need somebody's help! I always appreciate your help and insights.
Thank you!
 
AADSAS does not want your DAT scores and it is not necessary to include them with their application. When you register for the DAT you will select which schools you want your scores sent to and when you take the exam the ADEA will mail out official scores for you to each of the schools that you specified when you registered for the exam. It is much more important to get your AADSAS application in early than your DAT scores as AADSAS will take between 6 to 8 weeks to process your application, so yes, I suggest that you send in your application in June and then take the DAT later on.

In regards to your VISA status change I would make a post in the International Dental Forum if you haven't done so already.
