I thought you only send the supplement payment when the schools contact you. I am applying 16 schools and 11 of them are like that.
 
^yeah half of the schools i applied to are like that
 
Your GPA also has to be verified for your application to be sent out.

my verified do you mean like, calculated? on the AADSAS? cuz i have mine calculated and errthig
 
Has the first batch already been sent? I received an email today from a school asking for a supp fee because they have received my application. Anyone else have this happen?
 
Lucky! All of my schools,except one, said to pay their supplementary fee when I submit AADSAS.

Are you following the supplemental information on AADSAS or going to the schools websites? I think there are some differences between the two.

The school websites. I noticed that AADSAS sometimes don't accurately portray what the schools want. I guess I just picked all the "expensive" ones 😛

From my understanding, schools can "view" your electronic application once you e-submit. Hard official copies are sent from AADSAS to respective dental schools starting with the 1st batch, etc. It's my guess that UK just saw that you selected your application to be sent there and that is why they are contacting you, not that 1st batch mailing has begun.
 
That makes sense, I was a bit scared for a sec haha. Thanks!
 
i called the aadsas today and they said that because of the large volume of applications, my app isn't guaranteed to be send out in the first batch even though my application has been vefified :S

That seems odd.. They are saying b\c there are so many applicants applying early that they may not be able to send them all out the 1st batch?
