Okay I have an issue. Out of the 9 schools I applied to, I heard back from 8 via emails stating that they have received my application. When I check AADSAS under "school decisions" only 3 schools show up. (For instance, one says "received/under review", the other says "invited for interview" and the third schools says "waiting for additional information"). And then the other schools don't show up at all. Is this happening to anyone else or should I call the schools directly to find out why they are not showing up on AADSAS?
 
I wouldn't worry about this. The same thing happened last cycle, and although the schools are a part of AADSAS, some don't use AADSAS to update your status, and they choose to contact you directly. Other schools do update their statuses, but are very delayed, while others will update their status the second something changes with your application. It really just depends on the school. Throughout the entire process, only about half of my schools showed up last year. Also, there is no connection as to whether or not a school updates your status on AADSAS to receiving an interview/acceptance. I would contact the one school that you have yet to hear from, though.
