Hello all
I took a class my freshmen year that I withdrew from and under the freshmen forgiveness rules that my school has it does not appear on my transcript.
I want to report this class on my AMCAS, and I have no fears in reporting this class, it is a 1 credit class and when I re-took I got an A. And additionally I want to follow the manual to the T.

What I AM afraid of is that if I report it when AMCAS goes to verify and notices that it is not on my transcript they might register that as an error and I could get delayed for 5 weeks. Are there other ways AMCAS verifies so they see the full scope of the classes I see.

Thank You

One error should not delay your app. Ten errors or more will result in your application being returned. Call AMCAS and discuss your situation with them. They can advise you best.

You could try calling them to explain your issue. They could then tell you whether this will be a problem or not (though I assume it won't be). Additionally, when you call them, they ask for your AMCAS ID number, so I think they will probably have record that you called and asked a question. I don't know whether or not they consider this when they're verifying, but it might make them less likely to return it to you if they see that you've made every effort to do it correctly.

Thanks guys! They asked for a Transcript grade and I left it blank because there isn't a corresponding grade on the transcript. Do you guys think that was the right call?
