Temple offers an Early Assurance Admission Program to Katz School of Medicine to undergrads attending Temple university
Early Assurance
LKSOM offers several early assurance programs that allow students to be considered for acceptance in their junior year of college. The St. Luke’s Regional Campus has an Early Assurance program for students from DeSales University, Lehigh University, Moravian College, and Muhlenberg College. Students enrolled at Temple University or Washington & Jefferson College can also be considered for early assurance during their junior year of college and are able to complete the MD program at the North Philadelphia or St. Luke’s campus. To be considered for the early assurance program, students must have at least a 3.6 overall and science GPA at the end of their junior year of college, a strong commitment to service as demonstrated by extensive community and healthcare experiences and demonstrated leadership potential.
Students interested in the Early Assurance Program are nominated by the undergraduate pre-medical advisor during their junior year. Those selected to interview will participate in an interview day and be presented to the Admissions Committee for conditional acceptance. Students offered a conditional acceptance need to sit for the MCAT exam by the end of May.
