I was hoping someone might be able to address a few questions about secondaries:

-What schools use the primary application as a "first cut" and give a secondary once you have made it through?

-What schools do not screen and all applicants receive secondaries?

-If you decide to withdraw from applying to a school pre-secondary, how do you go about it?

-Are there any schools that do not require an additional check along with your secondary application?

I don't really know if there is a school that does NOT require an additional check when you submit your secondary.

Most of the schools send secondaries to all, I can't remember all that screen but I know Vanderbilt, Wake, and UNC do to name a few

A few. Check last year's school specific discussions: here.
-What schools do not screen and all applicants receive secondaries?
Most, see previous answer.
-If you decide to withdraw from applying to a school pre-secondary, how do you go about it?
Just don't fill it out. They'll forget about you pretty quick.
-Are there any schools that do not require an additional check along with your secondary application?
I've heard rumors of a school in florida that does this, but the answer is none unless that's true. Again, check the school specific forum.

do you receive secondaries via email? or regular mail?

 

[Bryson17]

Depends on the school. Most are email, but there's still some that send you mail, and some that send you mail linking to a website.

Most are submitted online, but some are still mail-in.
