north dakota comes to mind...
Through my investigation, I found that the TX schools (minus Baylor) and North Dakota are the only schools that do not use AMCAS. However, there are a few that use AMCAS that are not on the list of schools right now (East Carolina, Mercer, Ole Miss, Virginia Tech). Hopefully, they will be added soon.
Also, I did just remember the five or six schools in Ontario use their own application service.
Oh, I only looked at the US MD schools. But for the record, no Canadian schools use AMCAS either. The Caribbean schools do though.
I thought the other Canadian schools did for some reason, my mistake.
Sure the Caribbean schools do?
Ponce, San Juan Bautista, Universidad Central de Caribe, and University of Puerto Rice do.
Those aren't Caribbean schools. They're all in Puerto Rico. The fall under the LCME, AAMC, etc.
Oops. Yeah, don't listen to me.
Looking it up, it seems as if we got them all except the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
So AMCAS has all US (50 states+DC+puerto rico) MD schools outside of Texas (except Baylor), North Dakota, and the University of Missouri-Kansas City.

UMKC is a strictly BA/MD program so no one using AMCAS would be eligible to apply there anyway.
Why cant those TX schools use AMCAS to save me some troubles?....=[
Ive heard the texas application is MUCH easier, so maybe it should be the other way around?
Actually, they have an MD-only program. Students matriculate during the spring semester, so you take 4.5 years of class, and end up a year behind your friends that started in the fall.
University of Minnesota Duluth isn't on AMCAS this year... You apply through the UoM Twin Cities, which is on AMCAS, and pick UMD, UMTC, or both even though they are two separate programs.
