Does use of a CAS preclude the use of an institution’s own system?
Applicants for all participating programs will go to the www.optomcas.org web site to apply. A participating school or college may not accept applications directly from applicants with the exception of Transfer students (see definition in another FAQ), but may use their own systems for collection of supplemental data from the applicant. Programs must sign a Non-Binding Letter of Intent agreeing to only accept applications via OptomCAS. Programs may provide OptomCAS with profile information for posting on the OptomCAS web page.
