Editor's notes

  • Nothing on the application is Utah-specific. You pick your preferred campus in the supplemental and can ask to be considered at the other one. If Ivins is your first choice, say so there, and give a reason rooted in your own history, not the national parks.
  • The one real Utah door is the Rural Health Scholars early acceptance: up to 12 seats a year, no MCAT for students in good standing. If you're a Utah undergraduate in that program, apply after 60 credit hours rather than waiting for the regular cycle.
  • Admissions are rolling, and RVU warns that every interview may be handed out before the June 16 supplemental deadline. The Utah campus graduates carried a higher average debt ($331,489) than Colorado's in AACOM's figures, so apply early and apply for the June scholarship round once admitted.
  • Your interviewers see your personal statement, supplemental and letters, not your grades or MCAT. Treat the supplemental as the script for a 30-minute conversation.
