Do schools have an age limit???

Do they automatically reject applicants 28+? Just wondering...

They keep recruiting applicants until 6 hours after their clinical death.

I have met many late 20s/ early 30s people on MD-PhD interviews. So there are no absolute rejection age.

Technically, that would be illegal-- so automatic, unlikely (not saying it's not possible). Minimal consideration: most likely. Very compelling PS's, EC's, GPA, and MCAT would be necessary to bypass the extensive scrutiny of the applicant/application.


Funny thing though, MD/PhD adcoms don't really like young-uns either.:confused:
