Have any of you gotten this email from Wake forest? It stated just based on my MCAT they would like me to apply for this program.... The program is for URM's and while I come from an economically disadvantaged background, I am a white male. I didn't even apply to any MD schools or use AMCAS.
Dear Prospective Applicant:
The Wake Forest University School of Medicine is pleased to learn of your interest in a medical career.
Acknowledging the need for continual institutional growth in the recruitment and training of students not traditionally represented in medicine, our institution is committed to increasing the representation of students who are underrepresented in medical education.
Based solely on your MCAT scores, we invite you to apply to our Post Baccalaureate Premedical Program. The program is designed to facilitate the entrance of minority and disadvantaged students into medical school. Eligibility requirements are as follows: a bachelor's degree from an accredited U.S. school, an undergraduate science GPA of 2.7 or better and a total MCAT score of 21 or above (preferably 7s in all areas) in Verbal Reasoning, Physical Sciences, Biological Sciences and "N" or higher in the Writing Sample.
The program begins in August and continues through the fall and spring semesters. The curriculum includes graduate level science courses, writing and test taking skills. Students are responsible for their own living expenses, and a $15,000 program fee.
Students who successfully complete requirements of the program and the interview process are offered admission to Wake Forest University School of Medicine as first year medical students.
