Students must have applied to the SOM following the normal procedures specified by the SOM (including completion of CASPer and MMI interview process) and have met the following benchmarks:
* GPA ≥ 3.4 must be maintained upon completion of the program
The Conditional Admittance Agreement is valid for up to two (2) SOM admissions cycles (the year during which the student is enrolled in the Accelerated iBMS program and the one year following the end of the didactic portion of the program).
Students in the Accelerated iBMS Master's Program (AMP) or graduates of this program, and who seek admission to the NYMC SOM will be conditionally admitted if they meet certain academic performance benchmarks.
MCAT and GPA thresholds:
• MCAT ≥ 510
• Graduate (AMP) GPA ≥ 3.4 (graduate GPA after the Fall semester (January) OR overall GPA for students who have completed the coursework)
• GPA ≥ 3.4 must be maintained upon completion of the program
Maintaining professional and academic standards of integrity
Graduation of the student from the Accelerated iBMS program
Yes, students must have applied to the SOM following the normal procedures specified by the SOM including completion of the CASPer and MMI interview process.
Students sign a binding agreement with the NYMC SOM to attend NYMC if accepted. Signing this agreement precludes a student from accepting an offer from another medical school if accepted by NYMC SOM. As such, the Conditional Admittance Agreement limits a student’s options regarding the choice of medical schools.
No, it is conditional based on meeting all SOM admission requirements including a successful interview outcome.
No, you can choose not to sign the conditional admittance agreement. The good news is that all AMP students can take advantage of the non-binding Guaranteed Interview option which does not require signing an agreement to attend the NYMC SOM if accepted.
Students sign the agreement in August of the AMP year.
The Conditional Admittance Agreement is valid for up to two (2) SOM admissions cycles (the year during which the student is enrolled in the Accelerated iBMS program and the one year following the end of didactic portion of the program). AMP students are strongly discouraged from re-taking the MCAT during the AMP year due to the academic demands of the program. They are advised to re-take the MCAT in June following the end of the program for the next application cycle. However, the latest date an MCAT can be taken in the application cycle is in the first week of October.
No, they may apply to other medical schools in that cycle but signing this agreement requires the student to attend the NYMC SOM if accepted.
Yes, but they must submit a new application. Students may apply in the AMP year and in the year following assuming that all academic standards are met. The Conditional Admittance Agreement is valid for up to two (2) SOM admissions cycles only (the year during which the student is enrolled in the Accelerated iBMS program and the one year following the end of the didactic portion of the program).
Yes.
No, only AMP students are eligible.
