School Enrollment Question

[loungebunny]

Quick question...


I enrolled at one institution briefly (<24hours), and decided to go to other institution, so I "withdrew" from that institution completely BEFORE the withdrawl deadline.

So in this case, I wouldn't need a transcript from this institution, right?

Just getting so paranoid right now....

Did you take a class from this school and receive credits? It sounds like you didn't and thus wouldn't need a transcript from there.

Here is what the AAMC website says:

Transcripts: One official transcript is required from each U.S., U.S. Territorial, or Canadian post-secondary institution at which you have attempted course work, regardless of whether credit was earned

Since it says where you have attempted course work, I think you don't need to worry because you didn't attempt any course work at the school. Of course, if your really worried you can always call AMCAS and ask.

Awesome. I was just looking at this section:

If you withdrew entirely from a school before completing courses for a specific term, you must still list each course for which you were registered that term with Withdrawal as the Special Course Type.

and this:
A course entry should not be made if the course was dropped within the normal drop/add period.

so I was getting confused. Thanks!

one less thing to worry about
