Hi everyone! I paid out of pocket for my first 21 medical schools on AMCAS before I submitted and was accepted into FAP. I just tried adding a few more schools anticipating that it would be covered by FAP's assistance, but after resubmitting my application with the additional schools, it's asking to input my credit card information with a charge that's hundreds of dollars. I'm a little confused on how to proceed - any advice from someone who experienced something similar?

To be able to use the full benefits of FAP, you would have needed to apply for it even before the application opened and wait to be approved, before submitting your AMCAS primary.
In your haste, you have nullified your chance to use FAP, and will be paying for everything yourself this application cycle.
The application steps clearly spell this out in several places.
