Dear Applicant,
Thank you for your application to the College of Medicine at SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University. You may have heard the news that The State University of New York is working with Downstate on a proposal to transform Downstate’s University Hospital to place greater emphasis on outpatient care. While the specifics of any future plan are still being developed, we are writing to you to be completely transparent about this ongoing process so you can make an informed choice about your future educational goals.
Even with any potential transformation to Downstate’s University Hospital, our clinical training facilities already include strong partnerships with affiliated hospitals & facilities in Brooklyn and the New York City metropolitan area through which we plan to continue to build and expand our clinical services to provide even better care to our community and a robust educational and training program for our clinical programs.
As an institution, Downstate remains committed to providing vital care to our community and offering you an outstanding medical education. Downstate medical school graduates consistently perform above national averages on licensure and exam scores, and our graduates successfully match in residencies at or above the national average each year.
Collectively, our five colleges and schools offer high-powered programs focused on health education, with degrees ranging from bachelor’s to the doctorate level. We attract students who are passionate about the health professions, medicine and science, who want to pursue research
and experience hands-on community involvement – in Brooklyn, one of the most diverse communities in the nation. Our students learn in a friendly environment with facilities that include a modern high-tech anatomy lab and an “Information Commons” digital library, and a new academic building that provides classrooms to support 21st-century medical curriculum and innovative research endeavors.
We are dedicated to educating the next generation of health professionals and scientists, and our reputation for clinical training is second to none. We are proud of our diversity, emphasis on urban and immigrant health, and camaraderie among students and faculty. If you have any further questions regarding Downstate, we would be very happy to answer them.
We greatly appreciate your interest in applying to Downstate’s College of Medicine.
