  3. Getting in

    International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions channels and check the requirements for the specific school or program they want, since requirements can differ by subject. Confirm the current entry criteria, documents, deadlines, and whether your program has any additional professional or licensure-related requirements on the official website.

  4. What it costs

    The university does not publish a tuition fee range in the information available here; confirm the current cost with its admissions office. As with any campus in the United States, you should also budget separately for housing, food, transport, health insurance, and other living costs.

  5. Coming from abroad

If you want a place centered on medicine and related fields, it is more focused than many broad universities, but it is less suitable if you want a wide range of non-health subjects.
