When do schoold begin to review apllications, not when AADSAS begins to accept applications?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Case Nova and Ohio State sent me interview invites in July and early August. Other schools start later though.
I definitely wouldn't bother applying after June in all honesty. Save your money and apply in May of the following year. Of course, there are individuals who get accepted when they apply after June, but I would advise anyone I cared about to apply in May. Again, the best advice I could give anybody is to apply early. (of course your DAT and GPA numbers are important, but you only decrease the odds the longer you wait.)
Poeple will come on here after I have posted this and say apply no later than July. If I had done that, I wouldn't have received the invites when I did, so I wouldn't wait. Remember, AADSAS will most likely lose something of yours, so give yourself as much time as possible Pre-Dents!
When they recieve everything they need to review it. That means once all transcripts, all DAT scores, your application, your letters, your secondary application, and your secondary fee are in.
You got to pay fees when you first apply, then you got to fork up more dough? I thought you pay 1 large sum in the beginning and then play the waiting game...![]()

A few days after you hit send on AADSAS I would call each school you applied to and ask them if they have a application fee that you need to send. Despite having paid these schools with the AADSAS application some require extra money ($50-$75) just for them to look at your application. What most schools will do is come back after the July 4th weekend and begin going through the applications. If something is missing from the application the file goes back to the bottom of the pile. So if you ever get something in the mail that says you are missing something (DAT scores, money, etc) that means you application was at the top of your pile but wasn't complete so it went to the bottom. Now, if you preemptively call them and find out if there is a required fee you can have you application finished and the first time that it comes up you will be considered. This means that you could be looked at before a lot of other applicants.
I wasn't planning on taking the DATs until the end of June/early July. Assuming I have the other parts of my application complete (AADSAS, LORs, secondary applications), will this significantly hold up my application in the reviewing process? How long does it take for your DAT scores to be submitted to the schools you applied to?
