Medical School Admissions

“As an alumnus of the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, I have deep respect for the people, values and traditions that define a Rochester education. Enthusiasm for knowledge, passion for discovery and a spirit of humanism pervade the School. People who train here receive an excellent education and know what it means to be a truly caring physician. Our research mission and drive to understand disease transform our education and care and take them to an extra level. We welcome your interest.”

“Applicants to the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry are bright, diverse, and talented men and women who are drawn to the medical profession by their love of learning and commitment to serve others. In addition to a sound foundation in the sciences, entering Rochester students often have participated in significant community service, have had exposure to clinical work, and have been active in research.”
