AMCAS provides both paper and electronic application products to every
medical school designated (and paid for) by the applicant.
Paper Products
- Processed Applications (verified)
Processed applications represent the complete set of data an applicant
has submitted to AMCAS. All sections of processed applications have
completed AMCAS processing. All data in such applications are considered
final unless changes are later sent to the schools.
- Change Reports
These reports will be compiled and mailed to each school each
week. These reports reflect changes to selected key data for previously
verified applications.
Electronic Products
- Mailing Label Data
These data include preferred name, mailing address, phone, e-mail
address, state of legal residence and other selected key data elements,
and are intended to give schools the opportunity to contact applicants
interested in their program(s). Preliminary applicant data are provided
to medical schools via File Transfer Protocol (FTP) twice each month.
Mailing Label Data are also made available via the AMCAS Data Transmission
Utility (DTU).
- Electronic File of Select Applicant Data
Once a week, abridged application data is made available to medical
schools via FTP. Some of the data included in this file transfer are
applicant biographic information, schools attended, course work, GPAs,
MCAT scores and contact information. These data do not include applicant
essays or post-secondary experiences.
- Processed Applications (verified)
Processed applications represent the complete set of data an applicant
has submitted to AMCAS. All sections of processed applications have
completed AMCAS processing. All data in such applications are considered
final unless changes are later sent to the schools. Processed Applications
(verified) are transmitted electronically via the AMCAS Data Transmission
Utility (DTU) to all designated medical schools on a weekly basis.
