When you use the AAMC Letter Writer Portal, you agree to the following terms and conditions (Letter Writer Portal Terms):
If the applicant has waived their right to see their letter, you must not share the content of the letter with the applicant, you or someone else must not advise the applicant based on your or their knowledge of the letter, and you must otherwise comply with their waiver of this right.
Letter authors may choose anyone to assist them in uploading a letter, except they may not choose (i) someone who is in role where they are advising the applicant on the relevant application or (ii) an applicant who has waived their right to see their letter.
Letters are the property of the author of the letter and the author has the right to withdraw or edit any letter by contacting the relevant AAMC application service.
Depending on the application service, restrictions may exist regarding when and how an author can edit or withdraw a letter.
You should review any guidance on letters of recommendation provided by the application service and must comply with any requirements set by the service.
If you violate the Letter Writer Portal Terms or otherwise engage in conduct that the AAMC determines, in its sole discretion, impacts the integrity of the application and selection process for which you are submitting a letter, the AAMC may suspend or terminate your access and use of the Letter Writer Portal and/or your AAMC Account. If the AAMC service for which you are submitting a letter is subject to an investigations policy, that policy will apply to any use, or misuse, of the Letter Writer.
The Letter Writer Portal Terms incorporate by reference the AAMC Website Terms and Conditions and the AAMC Privacy Statement.
