Editor's notes
- No MCAT means the rest of the file does the work. SJSM says it weighs GPA, experience, letters, the personal essay and the interview. Make the essay specific and prepare for the interview as seriously as you would for a test.
- The interview runs on a video platform, and the school's terms say you're responsible for what you upload. Treat it like a live interview: quiet room, good light, answers you can give in your own words without reading.
- Scholarship deadlines come months before each term (April 15 for summer, Aug. 15 for fall, Dec. 15 for spring), and you need a reserved seat first. If money matters, apply early enough to hit them.
- The tuition is low, but check the outcomes yourself. SJSM's residency list is a sample, and its attainment rate covers 2007 to 2022. Ask admissions for current Step 1 results and how many students reach the clinical years.
