hey guys, i'm new here and i am working on my aadsas app and i was wondering if someone can explain this for me: do the people writing letters for you just send one copy of the letter to aadsas, and then aadsas sends out copies to all the schools you apply to? what about cases where you need certain letters to go to some schools and not others? thanks
 
Schools prefer that you send your letters directly to AADSAS, but if you want to send them directly to the school you may. They do ask, however, that you do not do both, IE send to AADSAS and the school.

It sounds like you have a few letters that are for specific schools, this is what I would do in that case...

Send letters that are supposed to go to all schools to AADSAS. Send your supplemental letters for specific schools to them directly.

I know that contradicts policy, but there is no other way around it.

lastly...... SEND IN YOUR APPLICATION NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, that is correct. BTW... you may want to hurry with that application! The first rounds of admitance letters go out on Christmas Day, Dec 1.
 
is this the correct address to have professors send letters:

AADSAS
1400 K Street NW, Suite 1100
Washington, DC 20005

?

wow, you're doing this now? AADSAS is known to take a million years to send your apps out, and another gazillion years to get LORs mailed to the appropriate institution.

GOOD LUCK dude!
