The purpose of this session is to discuss the cost of applying to medical school, resources that may be helpful, and steps you can take to manage the financial challenges. We will also touch on the cost of medical school itself and strategies for managing it.
The spring schedule is as follows:
III: The Price of Admission (February 12)
IV: Where to Apply? How to Decide? (February 26)
V: The External Application Process (March 12)
VI: "Tell Me About Yourself" (On Interviewing) (March 26)
VII: Traffic Rules (April 9)
VIII: Application Year Panel (TBD)
All sessions are held online from 10 – 11 a.m. on the dates indicated above.
The Application Launchpad Events Series is intended for GS premeds (postbacs and undergrads) who have recently submitted an internal application toward qualifying for committee support this summer for the Entering Class of 2026 (EC26). The series began in the fall 2024 with sessions on the MCAT and Application Year planning to encourage premeds to begin thinking ahead. Our hope is that discussions of this sort help you by giving you morsels of concrete information and providing a context for them. We also hope that by getting the process into better focus, it will become less amorphous and feel less overwhelming. We hope these discussions help to inform individual consultations you may have with your advisor.
