White Coat Planner
Build a smart school list, track every deadline, and stay ahead of secondaries.
White Coat Planner helps a medical student organize stats, compare school fit, sort programs into reach/target/backup buckets, and manage the application cycle with reminders and countdowns.
Planning data is saved locally on this device through your White Coat Planner database. Always verify official dates each cycle on AAMC, Acuity Insights, and school admissions pages before relying on them.

Cycle roadmap
Important admissions-cycle dates and timing
This roadmap combines official AMCAS milestones with typical timing for secondaries and interviews. School-specific deadlines still need to be checked on each school’s admissions page every cycle.
School matcher
Build and refine your school strategy
Add schools, import benchmark data, and let the planner group programs into reach, goal, and safety categories based on the applicant’s stats and preferences.
School builder
Add or customize schools you want to apply to
The planner already knows the bundled schools’ median GPA and MCAT benchmarks, so students only need to pick a school and add personal preference details.
Bulk import schools
The planner keeps a built-in school library in the background so students can search schools without having all of them automatically added to their personal list.
