Centralized Application Services

Most health professions have a centralized application service (analogous to the common application for students applying for college admissions).

  • AMCAS:
  • TMDSAS:
  • AADSAS:
  • AACOMAS:
  • AACPMAS:
  • CASPA:
  • PharmCAS:
  • VMCAS:

Investigate your chosen profession and your specific schools. Not all health professions use a centralized application service and some individual schools within a chosen profession do not participate in some or all parts of their centralized application process. Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine, for example, does not use VMCAS but instead uses TMDSAS. Investigate each school you are applying to and determine how to apply to that school.
