FAQ - Changing Your Application
How do I add another school once I have submitted my application?
To add additional schools to your application, you must send a written request to TMDSAS at the address listed on the bottom of this page.
Include your full name, TMDSAS ID and list the schools you would like added to your application. The written request should be accompanied by the additional application fee - $10.00 per school.
If any additional information is needed, TMDSAS will contact you directly once the request has been received.
How do I make an update or correction to my application once it has been submitted?
You are able to make changes to the following sections yourself by logging back on to the application: Contact Info, Colleges Attended, College Coursework, Planned Enrollment, My Account and Test Scores.
To update the information in your Letters of Evaluation section, you must email TMDSAS at tmdsas@utsystem.edu - include your full name, TMDSAS ID and the exact change that needs to be made.
How long will it take for a correction to be made to my application?
TMDSAS makes corrections/updates in the order that they are received. Please understand that corrections/updates are not a priority during the peak processing periods; therefore, it may take several weeks for corrections to be made.
To expedite the process, make sure to include your full name and TMDSAS ID on all correspondence.
Can I change my personal essay once I have submitted my application?
No changes can be made to the personal essay once it has been submitted to TMDSAS. It is crucial that you review your work BEFORE you submit your application.
How will I know if my requested correction has been made?
Once we have made the requested correction, you will be able to view it on your online application. TMDSAS also forwards your email request to each of the schools to which you have applied.
The evaluator that I listed in the application is no longer able to write a letter of evaluation for me, what should I do?
It is crucial that TMDSAS has the most accurate and current information available. Once you have secured a different evaluator, please notify TMDSAS of the new evaluator.
To make this change, email tmdsas@utsystem.edu. Include your full name, TMDSAS ID and indicate the name of the evaluator that needs to be removed.
Provide the following information for the evaluator that should be added:
- Salutation (i.e. Dr, Prof, Mr, etc.)
- First name of Evaluator
- Last name of Evaluator
- Suffix (i.e. DDS, PhD, etc.)
- Relationship to you
I received my DAT score and have decided to retake the exam. Should I notify TMDSAS?
Yes - you need to notify TMDSAS immediately if you decide not to take the DAT exam or decide on a different date or decide to retake the exam. You may make this change at any time during the application cycle by logging into your application and making the change in the [Test Scores] section.
