I want to add projected hours on AMCAS for work that I will continue until matriculation. I want schools to know how much hours I have prior to my application submission so they know how many hours for certain I have completed instead of projected hours. Anyway to do this?

I included it in my description. “I have blank hours at present and plan to continue volunteering at Habitat for Humanity” and then my projected hours is the main number

If you are pretty sure you'll complete the projected hours, you can use the Repeated feature. Then both the completed hours and the projected hours will appear in the header of the space. Use the current month as both the end month for the first date span and the beginning month for the second date span. (If you enter June while it's still May, the AMCAS program won't allow you to save the entry).

Alternatively, enter just the one span of completed dates and completed Total Hours in the header blanks, then in the narrative, add a note at the end stating, "Will continue this job to summer 2020 for xx hours per week." Or, "Planned end date July 2020" to be more succinct and vague, as you might decide on a vacation or travel at the end.
