If we submit our Application now, do we send the SUpplemental materials that are required to send at the same time right now? Or should we wait a few weeks until the schools actually get our applications. WIll the supplemental fees just get lost now?

Really not to sure, but im not sending my secondaries tell the begining of August after i finish the DAT... Dont think it will be a big deal, my secondaries will only take a week to get there
 
Here is how it works...

1. Send AADSAS application. With or without DAT scores. When you take your DAT, update AADSAS and they will send out the paper updated application to the schools.

2. Upon recieving your application the schools will send you a secodary application packet. Some schools require additional essays, other will ask for pictures, and all will have more redundant forms to fill out and want more cash.

3. Wait for interview.

I realize that you should wait to send the secondaries once the schools contact you, but some of the schools have requirements for things that should be sent at the same time you submit your application. (It says this in the 2007 application packet) So I still don't know when to send them.

You can send the supplemental requests stuff as soon as you submit your application. However, since your app won't be there for a little while you could wait a few weeks before sending that information. Just look at the supplemental information on your AADSAS account and you can see which schools want the supplemental stuff sent once you submit your application. Some schools will contact you and request the rest of the things you need to send.
 
Some schools want a check or supplemental stuff at the same time they get your application. Other schools will send you information regarding what they need. Look on the schools website or AADSAS for directions on how to proceed once you submit your application. 🙂

Check the schools' websites. Most schools send you a letter inviting you to to complete the secondary applicaiton. Other schools, like UNLV, have a secondary application on their website you can print out and send as soon as you want to. Also, some schools (again, UNLV) require four letters of recommendation. Like I said, you can just check their websites.
