Interviews

The committee on admissions will begin reviewing MD/PhD applications in the summer. Applications that are no longer being considered for the MD/PhD program will automatically be reviewed by the School of Medicine Admissions Committee for the MD program.

Interview invitations will be sent via email from August to February. MD/PhD applicants will meet with two members of the MD/PhD Admissions Committee, as well as two members of the MD Admissions Committee. All four interviews will be scheduled over a two-day period, which also allows time for attending lectures and meeting informally with students and research faculty.

Notification

The MD/PhD Admissions Committee will notify applicants of its decisions in March. Accepted students must send a tuition deposit of $100 with their response form to reserve a place in the class. (The tuition deposit is refundable until May 15.)

Please note that MD/PhD students must be United States citizens or U.S. permanent residents.
