HOW TO APPLY TO THE CASE WESTERN RESERVE PROGRAMS

Admissions Process

Here’s how the admissions process works at our School:

1. Complete the electronic primary application through the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS). AMCAS verifies your personal and transcript information on your application before it is sent to our School. It is important to note that it can take AMCAS 4 to 6 weeks to verify an application. So plan ahead and apply early!

2. Once our School receives your verified AMCAS primary electronic application, you will be sent an e-mail message directing you to our online, secondary (final) application. You should complete this application as instructed. All applicants are invited to complete the secondary application.

3. After you have submitted your secondary application and all supporting materials are received (i.e. letters of recommendation), the Admissions Committee will review your information and decide whether to invite you for an interview.

4. The Admissions Committee's decision will be emailed to you. The email will direct you to check your iApply account for a status change. Your iApply account will have a message indicating if you are being granted an interview or not. If you are invited for an interview you will receive further instructions.

5. After your interview (if granted), the Committee will decide whether to extend to you an offer of admission, and you will be notified of the Committee’s decision.

If you are interested in the Medical Scientist Training Program or the College Program, you should gain experience in research before applying.

You must have fulfilled these prerequisites at an accredited, four year, degree-granting American or Canadian college or university.
