Overview
Each CAS determines which official test scores it accepts for applicants. This is an optional service; contact a member of your account team to learn if your CAS collects official test scores.
For official test scores to appear in an applicant's file, the applicant must request that the scores be shared with the CAS; directions on how to do this are outlined in each CAS Applicant Help Center.
Liaison routinely receives electronic files from each testing body and automatically matches scores to applicants' files based on the applicant's name and date of birth; occasionally, a test ID is also needed, such as DENTPIN for the DAT or AAMC ID for the MCAT. If there is a discrepancy, applicants can contact customer service to have test scores manually matched.
For most tests, once an applicant shares their official test scores with the CAS, it is shared with all programs. The exception is GRE scores; applicants can choose to share their official GRE scores with individual programs through the CAS. To learn how to get a CAS-specific GRE code and receive official scores through the CAS, review Requesting Official GRE CAS Codes.
Applicant Official Test Score Communications
If your CAS collects official test scores, applicants receive a Test Score Received email once the official test score is received.
Applicants can also track when test scores are received under the Check Status tab in the application.
