So I have almost all of my transcripts in at this point, but have a question. I took classes in the spring and they may not have been included in the transcripts that I sent in to AMCAS since my school takes a bit to process the grades. Should I enter the classes and all in, request my transcripts, and then submit my app. Or would I not be able to submit my app until all grades are processed and transcripts received by AMCAS?
 
You can submit your app whenever you are ready - however Spring grades on only factored into your GPA if they appear on your transcript. So depending on if your Spring grades bring your GPA up or down, you can decide what to do.
 
I have around 150 credits so they won't make a huge difference, but they were all As so I'd prefer to add them in. I'll just submit my app as soon as my transcripts from that get in. Even if it gets in by June 30th or so that should still be pretty early in the cycle
 
if you enter classes on AMCAS priority that are not on official transcript, it will cause either a delay or rejection of your application. Alternately, if you dont have classes on AMCAS that show up on transcript, it can delay application. The transcript and application must match. You must do one of the following

A) Submit application without these classes to reflect current transcript
B) add classes to AMCAS and wait for official transcript with classes


I had an issue accessing my transcript when filling out my AMCAS application, so I used the mobile app for my university which displays the grades and course numbers, but I'm afraid they're not in the same order. Will this cause rejection of my application?
 
they consider order important as the directions clearly state.
Thanks for your reply.
They are in order by year and semester, just the individual classes are a little mixed up. Also, my transcript lists "subject" and "course number" separately, (EX Subject: Biol Course Number: 1012), so I simply listed 1012 as the course number. Was this incorrect?
