The MSA Program welcomes an average class of 80 students, combined, to its three locations in Cleveland, Ohio; Houston, Texas; and Washington, D.C. each year. As a collective, the Classes of 2021 and 2022 in the CWRU MSA Program held an average undergraduate GPA of 3.52 and earned an average MCAT score of 500.
