Scheduling Interviews

Invited applicants will be able to schedule their own interview days online. They will be contacted via email to select a date. The interview day is described here, and includes traditional formats combined with more interactive assessment of each candidate’s fit with our mission. A map of the area and a list of local hotels and restaurants will be sent with interview instructions.

Secondary applications

Selected AMCAS applicants will be contacted with an invitation to complete our secondary application electronically. We will accept no paper applications. This application contains questions relating to our institutional mission, requiring short written responses, as well as entry of some biographical data. Applicants will be able to access their electronic file at all times to view the application status and to see which (if any) materials are missing from the file. All completed applications will be screened, and selected applicants will be invited to schedule an interview.

Fee/Waiver

The fee for our secondary application is $75, payable at the time of submission. Applicants who qualify for the Fee Assistance Program (FAP) through AMCAS will be eligible for a fee waiver.

Acceptance Offers

Our admissions offers will occur on a rolling basis. In most cases, offers will be made within three weeks of a candidate’s interview dates. Initial offers will be made via email, with official offers following via US mail.
