Medical School Admissions: Transcripts
Did you know that you can request transcripts to be sent to
AMCAS even before your application is complete? Medical schools require
transcripts from every post-secondary school you have attended. This includes
all junior college, community college, trade school, or graduate school. You
have to submit a transcript even if no credit was earned from a course.
AMCAS provides a transcript request form that you can
complete online, print, and turn into each school’s registrar’s office. Go to www.aamc.org/amcas and get this done now
as the process can often take weeks. Transcripts are notorious for holding up
applications. It is also a good idea to obtain a transcript from each school
for yourself and put it on file. You may need it later.
For step-by-step advice on how to get into medical school
including examples of AMCAS applications, check out The
Medical School Admissions Guide: A Harvard MD’s Week-by-Week Admissions
Handbook. If you’d like to
