@GoldenRock, not speaking for @tenderp, but I believe with the Wash U University Scholars in Medicine program you also have to score a 36 on the old MCAT (516 on the new MCAT) and a 3.8 cumulative GPA at Wash U, in order to be able to continue on to Wash U’s medical school, which is a top 10 med school. So while the undergrad may be fully paid for, the entrance into the med school is no way assured like it is for other programs, although I’m sure those who are able to get into this program would have no problems in terms of getting that MCAT and GPA.

Also, Wash U does not currently have an MD/MBA program, so you’d be at the mercy of the medical school to allow you a leave of absence from med school to pursue the MBA, which they could easily say no, for a variety of reasons (some of which are quite legitimate). Med schools with a combined MD/MBA program are usually your best bet if you wish to do MBA work during your MD education.
