Number of Credit Hours

[mccarty7]

Hey all,

I just recently got verified, and I was taking a look at my GPA's and stuff. So I am taking 6 hours of summer courses, which are over next Friday. But since they are not complete, my app says I have 89 hours total right now. For the life of me I can't remember which school it was, but in the MSAR I read something about a school requiring 90 hours upon applying.

Does anyone know which school that was?

Also, is that a common requirement, or will I be fine?

Another question. After these summer classes are over, do I need to have another transcript sent to AMCAS or will they automatically get the updates? Confusion!

Thanks!!

I think the 90 credit hour is pretty common among most schools. If it isn't, I can almost say for sure that you need to have completed a bachelors degree (which usually has more than 90 credits).

I will have completed my bachelors by the time I graduate next may...

Once you have been verified byAMCAS, you cannot update your transcript information through them. You would have to send the new grade report directly to each school.
