Ok, so I'm done with my application, have been verified and have all of my letters uploaded to Interfolio. Despite researching on here and elsewhere, though, I can't seem to figure out exactly how to send the letters to DO schools (I'm only applying DO) using Interfolio. I don't have to send the letters to AACOMAS do I? I know that AMCAS handles MD letters. When I try to find an institution using Interfolio it can't recognize any of the DO schools.

lmu-debusk came up immediately for me, I'm sure the rest do as well. I just tried a few samples and they work fine

Ok, I've been trying a few more and most have come up. Marian and Pikeville haven't for some reason though and they both accept letters via Interfolio. When I need to send the letters is it really as easy as selecting the school through that process though? I feel like MD applicants have to go through a lot more technicalities.
 
isnt interfolio like 6 bucks everytime you sent 1 letter to a school?

I looked into it last year and I ended up having the writers mail them directly to each school... a lot cheaper...

The value in interfolio is the flexibility to change who you want to send things to without having to trust a busy doctor/professor to print and mail another one
