| Admissions policies and procedures
|
The committee on Admissions will
select those applicants who, in its judgment, will
make the best students and physicians. Consideration
is given to the entire record, GPA, MCAT scores,
recommendations, and interview results as these
reflect the applicant's personality, maturity,
character, and suitability for medicine.
Additionally, the committee regards as desirable
certain health care experiences, such as
volunteering or working in hospitals, hospices,
nursing homes, or doctor's offices. The committee
also values experience in biomedical laboratory
research. Following an initial screening process,
students with competitive applications are selected
to complete a secondary application. Special
encouragement is given to candidates from medically
under served areas in Michigan. |
