What is a BS/MD Program?
As we learned from Laura Baldasare in our April 2025 webinar, a BS/MD program, also known as a direct medical program, is an accelerated route to medical school for high school students. These programs are limited in number and are highly competitive.
To learn even more about these programs and test scores, see the video of Laura’s presentation slides below (no music or sound was included for your convenience).
To complete a BS/MD, students complete a bachelor’s degree and then proceed, conditionally, into medical school. We suggest viewing the AAMC’s updated list on Medical Schools Offering Combined Baccalaureate-MD Programs, by State and Program Length, 2024-2025 and see each institution’s BS/MD program page on their official website for more information!
