The program includes three years of pre-medical courses from the institution selected (undergrad program) and four years of medicine at PHSU. Each university is responsible for the selection of the candidates to participate. They are selected among those who show outstanding performance in High School and College Board Exams. For PHSU, these candidates must comply with all requisites established in the consortium of each institution.
The Admissions Committee of the MD program will evaluate each candidate individually and must participate in an interview process. Therefore, be part of a binary program does not guarantee automatic admission to PHSU’s MD Program.
Applications are processed through AMCAS. Also, the secondary application must be completed.
