What We Look For
Why do you want to become a doctor? What is it about you and your experiences that have led you to make this rewarding, but extremely challenging, career choice?
These are important questions and at Ross University we take them very seriously. How have you put your interest in medicine into action: In your academic work? In employment and/or volunteer work? In your personal life?
At Ross University, we want to know these things. Yes, we want to see your school transcripts and MCAT results. We want to know what kind of student you have been and judge how well you will stand up to the intensity of a medical school education.
But we also want to know about you as a person, because ultimately that is what will determine the kind of doctor you will be. So, in our evaluation process, we give consideration to any student who shows the potential for handling the rigorous academic challenges of the school. In doing so, we focus as much on the life experience and determination of our candidates as on their academic background.
