AAMC MCAT Official Prep Hub Terms and Conditions

Last Updated: December 1, 2025

The Medical College Admission Test® (“MCAT®”) is a program of the AAMC. After purchase, the AAMC MCAT Official Prep Product (“Prep Product”) is made available through the AAMC MCAT Official Prep Hub (the “Hub”).

Acceptance of Terms of Use

These terms and conditions (“Terms”) govern your purchase as well as your use of the Prep Product. The AAMC Website Terms and Conditions and AAMC Privacy Statement are incorporated by reference, if a conflict exists these Terms shall take precedence. By purchasing a Prep Product or visiting the Hub, you agree to the Terms set forth below. If you do not accept these Terms, do not purchase the Prep Product nor use the services provided through the Hub.

You agree we may revise these Terms from time to time without providing notice to you. Your continued use of the Hub after such revision will indicate your acceptance of the Terms as revised. We recommend that you review these Terms regularly.

These Terms apply to individuals who are accessing the Hub to use the Prep Products for their personal use to study and sit for the MCAT exam. For all other individuals, including but not limited to individuals who are pre-health advisors, researchers, those who work for a test prep company, or are developing test prep products, the AAMC MCAT Official Prep Bulk Purchase Terms and Conditions apply regardless of purchase type. For individuals where both descriptions of purpose are applicable, both these Terms and the AAMC MCAT Official Prep Bulk Purchase Terms and Conditions apply.

Prep Product Access

The Prep Product is made available to you with restrictions.

The Prep Product expiration date is visible in the Hub.

The AAMC reserves the right to: refuse you access to the Prep Product at our sole discretion; delete your Prep Product associated activity (e.g. score reports) three years from the date your access expired; and update individual items in the Prep Product at any time and for any reason.

Under no circumstances will your scores on any Prep Product be considered a substitute for scores achieved on an actual MCAT administration.

Refunds

All sales are final. No refunds or exchanges will be issued.

Your Security Obligations Regarding Your Account and Use of The Hub

You may access the MCAT Official Prep Hub with your valid AAMC account or AAMC-approved third-party account. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account. You may not share or offer to share your Prep Product access. You may not use someone else’s account.

You agree to notify mcatprep@aamc.org immediately of any potential unauthorized use or other breach of your account.

Copyright Infringement

The AAMC is the copyright owner of the MCAT Official Prep Products. You may not copy, create derivative works (including but not limited to solutions, AI/LLM modeling), record, distribute, exploit for any commercial purposes, modify, publish, publicly perform, reproduce, resell, sell, or transmit any portion of the Hub or the Prep Product.

These Terms serve as notice and any infringement may be deemed willful. The AAMC protects its intellectual property under 17 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq. and you could be liable for statutory damages set forth in Section 504(c)(2) therein. 

Violations of Terms and Conditions

If you violate these Terms or otherwise engage in inappropriate conduct, as determined by AAMC at our sole discretion, you understand AAMC may take action, including, but not limited to, the following:

Suspension or Termination of Access

AAMC may suspend or terminate your access to the Prep Product or block access to the Hub, with or without notice to you. Your access to the Prep Product may not be reinstated.

Investigation

The AAMC may investigate and may issue a report of the factual findings of the investigation (an “Investigative Report”). If you are the subject of an AAMC investigation you shall: fully cooperate with the investigation, produce all documents and materials requested by the AAMC, and submit to an in-person interview conducted by or on behalf of the AAMC at its request. You shall truthfully and completely answer all questions posed during such investigative interview. Refusal to cooperate with the investigation or providing false or misleading information in the course of an AAMC investigation shall constitute a violation of these Terms and may be included in the Investigative Report.

If the AAMC opens an investigation, the AAMC will contact you to: notify you that an investigation has been initiated; provide you a summary of the matter being investigated; inform you of the policies and procedures related to the investigation, and provide you an opportunity to respond. The Investigations Procedures, Reporting of Cases, and Binding Arbitration sections of the Policies and Procedures for Investigating Reported Violations of Admission and Enrollment Standards will govern and are incorporated by reference.

Other Redress Available to the AAMC

The AAMC may file a civil lawsuit against you for material breaches of these Terms. In addition, the AAMC may, at its sole discretion, refer you to one or more federal, state, or local prosecuting attorneys for criminal investigation and prosecution when it has a reasonable basis to conclude that you may have committed a crime in the course of violating these Terms.
