The CWRU School of Medicine Linkage Program

Student presenting in class to other students

Climb the ladder to success

The Medical School Admissions Committee at Case Western Reserve University excitedly partners with the following SOM programs:

Requirements 

We guarantee interviews to CWRU MD applicants from the above programs meeting the following benchmarks:

  • Undergraduate cGPA ≥ 3.4
  • CWRU Post-bacc Program GPA (visit post-bacc program websites for details)
  • MCAT score ≥ 515
  • Demonstrated highest levels of personal and professional conduct

Note: Eligible MD applicants qualifying for the linkage agreement must have a fully completed and submitted application by October 15, and interviews must be completed no later than December 15.

This opportunity is exclusively for students who haven't previously interviewed with the CWRU Medical Students Admissions Committee (MSAC). However, the MSAC may interview applicants across multiple cycles based on competitiveness.

It's important to note that the MSAC evaluates all aspects of an application and may interview candidates who don't explicitly meet these criteria, especially if they demonstrate exceptional qualities in other areas.
