Transcript Verification
What is it?
Beginning with VMCAS 2014 (opening June, 2013), VMCAS will
perform Transcript Verification on all submitted applications.
VMCAS will match your coursework section line
by line against your official transcript to ensure you have correctly entered
your courses.
How Does it Work?
Once VMCAS receives all your required documentation (see
“Required Documents” below), VMCAS will then place your application in the
verification queue.
Verification can
take up to four (4) weeks for us to complete your verification. By submitting all of your transcripts by September 1st, you will greatly improve your chance of having your application verified by the October 2nd deadline.
What does this
REALLY Mean?
It means that you should plan on submitting your
application, and have all your evaluations and transcripts into VMCAS by
SEPTEMBER 1st, 2013
in order to allow time for your application to move through verification.
Required
Documents:
In order for your application to qualify for verification,
the following items

Once all four of the above requirements are met, VMCAS will
