I submitted the AACOMAS application a while ago, and it is still being processed. My question is, when can I start on secondary applications? Do I have to wait for the schools to send me information?
 
A lot of the info on this can be found in the 2009-2010 secondary application thread. Some of the posts include the essay questions on particular school's secondaries. Many of the secondaries are posted online for anyone to access so you can even start filling them out prematurely, which is usually a good idea because if they have it online they basically send it to all applicants. Others you have to wait until they send it to your email account or through snail mail. Good luck with everything, especially waiting to be verified!
 
Also look at Chocolate Bear's signature block, there is a link to a thread that has secondary essay prompts for a lot of the schools
