Advanced Core in Medical Sciences (ACMS) Postbaccalaureate Program
Prepare for success in medical school and as a practicing physician through the Lewis Katz School of Medicine (Katz) Advanced Core in Medical Sciences (ACMS) Postbaccalaureate Program.
This full-time, 10-month, non-degree program is designed for those who:
- Have completed their foundational science (pre-med) coursework in their undergraduate program
- Have a demonstrated passion for medicine and service
- Seek to enrich their understanding of biomedical science.
Also, ACMS students learn in designed exclusive courses and work together as a team, as they will in their future medical careers.
The program is unique among other postbaccalaureate programs because every student accepted into the ACMS program also receives a conditional acceptance to the Katz MD program. Unlike other programs, there is no competition between students for limited medical school admission slots. Instead, all ACMS students who successfully complete the ACMS program requirements directly matriculate together as first-year medical students at Katz.
