Entrance Requirements

Completion of the baccalaureate degree is required for admission to the MD program. The education of a physician is lifelong. The years of formal schooling are only preparation for the self-education that a physician must continue throughout his/her professional life. Applicants are encouraged to have a broad educational background; no specific major is deemed superior to another. A major goal of undergraduate college work should be the development of the applicant's intellectual talents and to provide for his/her overall development and maturation. The premedical studies required for admission are set in order to provide the student with a firm grounding in subjects considered essential for the study of medical sciences, to provide the Committee on Admissions a means to evaluate aptitude for scientific work, and to determine interest in the sciences.

The following courses must be included in undergraduate study:

• Biology w/laboratory (one year)
• General Chemistry w/laboratory (one year)
• Organic Chemistry w/laboratory (one year)
• Physics w/laboratory (one year)
• College-level Mathematics (one year)
• English, including composition (one year)

The Committee on Admissions prefers that the required premedical courses not be taken on a Pass/Fail basis, but that letter grades are received. It is also preferred that course work is taken in a classroom setting.

An accepted student is responsible for completing all prerequisite course work prior to matriculation. It is understood that a student accepted by the school will be denied admission if he/she fails to complete all specifically required courses and to maintain a good record of scholastic performance and conduct leading up to matriculation.

It is imperative that applicants have the experience of shadowing a physician. There is no set designation of time, but having a good understanding of the roles and responsibilities of a physician is extremely important.

All applicants are required to take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) and apply through AMCAS. All letters of recommendation are also turned in to AMCAS. Applications and information about the test may be obtained from the website . Students are emailed a secondary application by invitation only.

All students applying to the MD program must be US citizens or permanent residents. 

Applicants who have matriculated into medical school previously or have felony convictions will not be considered.

Students accepted for admission must pay tuition and fees in accordance with the MSM policy in order to enter. Students may apply for loans, scholarships, and grants in order to meet these financial obligations. The ability to finance a medical education is not a factor in the selection of candidates for admission. However, the final responsibility for payments of fees and tuition and for the provision of living expenses lies with the student.

COVID-19 related entry requirement adjustments

2020 MD Application Cycle

• Will there be changes to the MSM Application and Acceptance Protocols for current applicants?

  No, we have not made any changes to our Application and Acceptance protocols. Accepted students should continue to adhere to our established protocols as well as the AMCAS Choose Your Medical School dates and requirements.

• Will there be a delay in receiving admissions decisions due to COVID-19?

  We do not anticipate a delay in notifying applicants of our admissions decisions. Continue to check your emails frequently for notifications regarding your application status.

• Will there be a delay in New Student Orientation or the start of MD 1 classes for incoming 2020 students?

  At this time, we expect that New Student Orientation will still take place in person on June 29-30, and M1 classes will begin on July 1, also in person. Should this change, we will communicate with students via email.

2021 MD Application Cycle

MSM will accept online prerequisite and pass/fail courses taken during the Summer 2021 and Fall 2021 terms.  Our MCAT and SJT deadlines remain September 2021.

• I was taking a face-to-face prerequisite course during my Spring 2020 term, but the course was converted to an online format due to COVID-19. Will MSM accept this online course credit?

   

  If you were enrolled in a prerequisite course during your Spring 2020 term that began as an in-person course but was converted to an online course due to COVID-19, we will accept the online course credits for Spring 2020 and Summer 2020 only. We will not consider online pre-requisite courses that were taken prior to Spring 2020. We will not consider prerequisite courses taken during Spring 2020 that began and ended as online courses.

  MSM will also accept online prerequisite courses for the Fall 2020 term.

• My classes have changed to pass/fail. Will this impact my application to MSM?

  We are aware that some schools have changed from a letter grading system to a pass/fail system as a result of COVID-19. AMCAS accepts pass/fail courses so we can consider these in the review of your application. These courses, however, will not be included in your GPA calculations. We utilize a holistic approach throughout our application process and will evaluate all parts of your application, not just one component of your transcript.

• Has MSM extended its September MCAT deadline?

  Our MCAT deadline for the 2021 MD Application Cycle remains September 2020. We are closely monitoring updates from the AAMC and will post changes on this webpage.

• My school鈥檚 faculty are now working remotely, and I am unable to get a committee letter or packet. Will this affect the status of my MD application?

  MSM accepts committee letters and individual letters. Student who are unable to get committee letters/packets from their schools should secure at least three individual letters of recommendations. A minimum of two letters should come from your science professors and should be prepared on school letterhead with a signature, title, and contact information.
