If the AMCAS program requires a transcript from your school(s), you will list the school(s) in this section, and you will be able to create and print an AMCAS pre-barcoded Transcript Request Form to send to the respective registrar(s). We strongly suggest you include this form with your transcript(s) because this helps ensure your transcript(s) are applied correctly to your application. A unique transcript ID is generated for each school entered in your application. When submitting your request for electronic transcripts, it is crucial to provide the correct AAMC ID and transcript ID to ensure proper processing. Incorrectly entering the AAMC and Transcript IDs may result in processing delays for your application.
Issues with transcripts are the number one cause of processing delays and missed application deadlines. Please review this section carefully.
We also strongly recommend you request copies of your official transcript(s) for your own use in completing the Coursework section of your application. Please review each transcript carefully to be certain that:
- All coursework to date is listed and accurate.
- Any narrative evaluations received instead of grades are attached to your record.
- All final grades are reported correctly.
- All final grade changes are clearly recorded.
- Any list of other institutions attended is correct and complete.
You must submit new official transcripts each year you apply.
