More About the Medical School
The application process at Brown University’s Warren Alpert Medical School involves several steps and focuses on a holistic review of each candidate. Prospective students must apply through the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS) by October 7 for the following year’s class, with a secondary application deadline on November 1. No minimum MCAT score is required, but scores must be from January 2022 or later for the 2025 matriculation cycle.
Applicants can expect a rigorous review that includes evaluations of their leadership qualities, GPA, MCAT scores, letters of recommendation, commitment to medicine, research experience, and life experiences.
Interviews are conducted virtually from September to February, and candidates are notified of their admission status on a rolling basis post-interview.
Brown also offers several pathways to admission, including the traditional AMCAS route and special programs like the Program in Liberal Medical Education (PLME) for undergraduates and linkage programs with specific postbaccalaureate programs.
The secondary application, which is required after the AMCAS application, includes Brown-specific questions and a non-refundable fee.
