I was wondering if any schools offer a graduate degree program (such as MPH), where if you obtain a certain GPA you are automatically excepted into there MD program?

THANKS!

There are certainly MPH programs but I've never heard of one that guarantees admission to medical school. What program are you thinking of?

I think Drexel has something like this you have to maintain at least a 3.5.

Dont you think such a program would be just as competitive as applying to directly to medical school? Why not increase your options? 🙂

U of I has a program where you get accepted from high school, complete 4 years of undergrad and if you maintain a certain GPA and get a certain MCAT, you have guaranteed admission.

Yeah, GPPA.

Yeah, a lot of undergrads have similar programs. They're usually called Combined BA/MD or Combined BS/MD programs.

But I think the OP is looking for some post-baccalaureate programs (or grad programs) with a guaranteed acceptance into medical school. I personally don't know of any.

Knox College has one with Rush University but the school is kind of worthless if u don't get into that program
