Dr. Eaton / June 16, 2014 at 12:59 pm. If you would like to begin medical school in fall 2016, then you should submit your AMCAS application in the summer of 2015, preferable early in the cycle. The first day to submit is in early June.
The following 2017 AMCAS application deadline dates were provided to AAMC as of April 2016. Applicants should check directly with medical schools or within the AMCAS application to verify, as these deadlines are subject to change. For combined degree programs (eg., MD/PhD, MD/MBA) deadline information, please refer to the website or the Medical Schools section inside the AMCAS application.
