When Should I Apply to Medical School?

Most medical schools open applications in June every year. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.

We recommend that all applicants try to apply as early as possible. In other words, apply during June. That means that you must be diligent with your MCAT scores, letters of recommendations, personal statements, etc. Medical schools can be slightly more lenient to students who apply early on in the cycle.
