Mt. Sinai School of Medicine Early Acceptance Program in Humanities & Medicine

This program offers maximum flexibility in the undergraduate years for students to explore their interests in humanities; it assures highly motivated undergraduates admission to Mt. Sinai upon successful completion of program requirements and graduation from their undergraduate program. MCATs are neither required nor permitted to be taken. An integral part of the program is a required on-campus summer program at Mt. Sinai, in which students participate after their junior year, consisting of classroom study in physics and organic chemistry along with an introduction to various clinical disciplines through weekly rotations.

Students apply in the first semester of their sophomore year (Febs apply their fourth semester). Ideal candidates for this highly selective program will have demonstrated interest and ability in the sciences and math in high school, will have taken a minimum of science/math in college, and will demonstrate personal attributes that show promise for becoming a compassionate and humanistic physician. First-year college GPAs of successful applicants are usually greater than 3.60; combined SAT scores have been greater than 1350.

Applications and more information are available on the Mt. Sinai website:
