Certification and Submission

To complete and submit your application, you must certify a set of statements, which serves the same purpose as your legal signature. Agreeing to the certification statements is binding. Once you submit your application to the AMCAS program, you can make only limited changes to it. Therefore, you need to undertake a careful review of your entire application, and we suggest you review a hard copy of it by selecting the Print Application button on the Main Menu. (It’s important to note only your processed application will reflect your AMCAS GPAs.)

Financial Hold

Your application will be held if you owe the AAMC money for services provided in a previous year or for the current year for any AAMC program. Applications will not be processed until financial holds are resolved, which may result in missed deadlines.

It’s your responsibility to ensure the AMCAS program has received payment of all required fees. You will receive email notification if your application is held for financial reasons. If you have any questions, send us a message or call 202-828-0600.

Refund Policy

Once you submit your application and it has been successfully delivered, the AAMC’s service is complete and no refunds will be issued. It’s your responsibility to select the programs you will apply to, complete your application correctly, monitor the status of your application, ensure all required materials are received and posted to the application, respond to all notifications in a timely manner, and adhere to the deadline requirements posted by each program you have applied to. You will not receive a refund for failure to meet the admissions requirements of a medical school or for an unsuccessful application.
