http://web.jhu.edu/prepro/health/Applicants/choosing_schools.html
• More than 100 medical schools are participating in the AMCAS Letters
of Evaluation program. These schools are indicated with a small “LOE”
icon.
• Many medical schools perform a criminal background check on
applicants. These schools are indicated with a small “CBC” icon.
• You can only apply to one type of program at each institution (e.g., MD,
MD/PhD). If you decide to change the type after submitting your
application, notify the school directly.
