Affordable Medicals School in Europe

Not all medical students are same. You may be ready to begin medical school but don’t fit into the category of “traditional medical school applicant.”

For instance, have you:

• Finished your undergraduate program, with all the pre-med courses, perhaps with excellent grades but didn’t apply for medical school in the traditional time frame?
• Haven’t completed the MCAT?
• Seeking a program that compliments your GPA?
• Need a more affordably priced medical program?
• Didn’t attend a program with a linkage?

You have options.

Haven’t completed the MCAT and want acceptance without it?

There are a few USA medical schools may meet your expectations. Some accelerated programs stateside, such as those at Northwestern University, Brown University and East Carolina University, do not require an MCAT to matriculate. However, these are competitive programs which usually require high SAT/ACT scores, grades or admission in your junior year. Others require early admission, including Drexel and Ohio Universities along with ICAHN School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Canada also offers a couple of programs, including the University of Ottawa and Windsor University’s program on the island of Saint Kitt.

Taken the MCAT with have a median GPA close to 3.5 or MCAT scores between 25-35?

As you pursue your goal of medical school consider the following: military college program, college programs that serve the medically underserved and HBC’s (historically Black colleges) which accept students with median GPAs of around 3.5 and MCAT scores from 25-35. These schools include Uniformed University of Maryland, University of Maryland, Hofstra, Howard, Mercer, Commonwealth Medical, Eastern Virginia, Albany, Morehouse, Tulane, Meharry, University of Missouri and Marshall Universities.

Need to prep for the MCAT? Feel like you want to apply to medical school, but worry about grades in your pre-med science courses?
