Hello everyone,

I have recently been admitted into Rice and also received an invite to interview for the Rice/Baylor BS/MD program. I have also been admitted to an in-state BS/MD program, which offers a plethora of opportunities for the 10+ students that are accepted. Unfortunately the Rice/Baylor website is very sparse and does not indicate whether the program offers similar advantages.

The basic benefit of the program seems to be that I would be assured a spot in Baylor’s Medical School (if I maintain a certain GPA/MCAT). I was wondering if any parents/current students had any insight as to what other benefits this program offers. Is the program structured (with special events and opportunities for Rice/Baylor students)? Do Rice/Baylor students get specific research/volunteering/networking advantages?

Thank you in advance.
