List of Schools that Reject Pre-Secondary?

I want to start pre-writing secondaries. Since I am applying to so many schools, I need to prioritize which to work on first. I think it makes the most sense to work on secondaries that I will for sure receive. For example, it doesn't make sense for me to work on UCSF's right now if I'm unsure whether I'll even receive a secondary from them, since they are known to reject pre-secondary.

Is there a list somewhere of schools that reject pre-secondary? If not, is there another way I can find this out? Thank you!

UCSF like you said, UCLA, and University of Washington come to mind. I'm sure there are a few others out there that screen pre-secondary but you will just have to take a look at your list and look into it yourself.

On the MSAR there is a section in Admissions with the heading Secondary Application.
UCLA and UCSF state "Screened applicants after preliminary review"

USC reads "All AMCAS-certified applicants"

It won't take you long to check all the schools on your list & see which send a secondary to all.

Vandy and Dell Med both screen prior to sending secondaries!
