Does anyone know how to upload the Western ABS file? I downloaded the file and filled it out but I didn't do the save as link part (I couldn't find it under File). Would it be okay to submit it as it is?

@Medapps

Assuming you have it saved somewhere on your computer, log into OMSAS, click "SAM" in the left-hand column, select "Western University Abbreviated Autobiographical Sketch" as Document type, select "Western University" under University, browse for your saved ABS file, click "Submit".

The instructions for Save Link As are likely just to avoid the browser opening the file in a new Window rather than downloading a copy. As long as you were able to fill out the document and save it you're fine.

Hey, to select the document type as "Western University Abbreviated Autobiographical Sketch, do we first need to click on "Upload a document" link?

I had to log out and log back in to submit the document and that worked for me
