Ok, so I know there is a list published if you are holding acceptances at more than one school, but how much information is on that list? Do medical schools know where you were accepted or just that you are holding onto more than one spot? What about rejections, withdrawals and other such actions - do they see those?

I am just interested to find out what actually happens then because I am new to this.

Thanks in advance.

All schools that have accepted you know where else you've been accepted and nothing more as of a few days ago.

If you are accepted at a school and then withdraw, can they see that acceptance?

Probably depends when you withdrew.

Somebody posted here that AMCAS notified schools already.

A few days ago, Dragons descended upon each medical school campus and burned the names of all accepted students on their lawns. Then, to each medical school, eagles delivered scrolls for each accepted student. On these scrolls are written, in an ancient medical tongue, a list of each medical school the student has been accepted to. Then, for each scroll delivered, nazgul delivered unique seeing-stones with which the scrolls may be interpreted, and upon interpretation of this information, every medical school dean across the nation danced an ancient dance.

Medical schools cannot view the number or names of other schools that an applicant has applied to
Medical schools have access to:
Multiple Accept Data (February 10)
This report allows medical schools to see other schools to which an applicant they have accepted is also currently holding an acceptance decision

The National Acceptance Report (April 1)
This report lists all applicants with a current Acceptance or Matriculated action

It might have been a little earlier than the 10th this year (These are the dates for next year I believe).

Other trafficking points for your pleasure

Pretty sure owls are used, not eagles.

I feel like I am reading an MCAT verbal passage? The answer is C right?
 
Does anyone know if this applies to Texas schools as well? Do AMCAS schools see Texas school acceptances?

Probably not. It's a different application service. Except Baylor?

Even though Texas schools do not use AMCAS for applications, they are still members of the AAMC, so I would think the rules do apply to them. Not sure though, might be worth calling one of their admissions offices to find out.
 
Sorry, just to clarify: do all med schools you've applied to see this list schools you're holding acceptances at, or only the ones that have accepted you see the list?

Thanks!!

No, no, no...owls deliver acceptance letters to prospective students.
Eagles are for the privileged AMCAS/adcom communications 😉

I think eagles are more capable. I don't know why owls were used in the harry potter world but eagles are faster, stronger, and smarter.
