Hi SDN posters!
I submitted my official transcript to AMCAS a couple of weeks ago and received the confirmation email about... 3-4 days after I turned in my transcript request form to my college. When entering in my grades onto my primary app this weekend, however, I discovered that there was a small error on my official transcript -- it lists that I did a 0 credit international summer experience, when I fact did not do any such experience (I wish I had been out of the country that summer but was very much in the US... ). I obviously can't enter that "class" into my AMCAS application, so I am getting my school to remove that one tiny line and resend the corrected transcript. Should I (or my school) make a note on my AMCAS transcript request form that my transcript is being resent because of that tiny error? Will I also be able to submit my AMCAS application on June 6 (before the corrected transcript arrives) without any dangers of it being flagged for review (because of that one stupid line), or should should I wait until AMCAS has received my form a week later (I would rather not do that, since that would delay the verification process)?
(I emailed AMCAS, but figured I'd ask around here too -- surely someone has made a similar mistake before?)
