OFFICE OF STUDENT ADMISSIONS

 

 

 

SUNY Downstate's College of Medicine, Health Related Professions, Nursing and its School of Public Health offer 

 

students a broad professional education that will prepare them for practice or careers in any location and community.

 

This education provides exceptional opportunities for those students with a commitment to promoting health in urban

 

communities and addressing the complex challenges of investigating and preventing diseases that confront clinicians, 

 

educators, and researchers in such an environment. 

 

This special aspect of Downstate's unique mission is reflected in the students it attracts and selects, the vast majority

 

of whom are drawn from the New York City Metropolitan area. Many of these students are members of minority and

 

cultural groups underrepresented in the health professions, and/or come from families of first-generation immigrants or

 

from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

The differences in the background and outlook that students bring with them can enhance the quality of the educational 

experience of all students at SUNY Downstate. The belief that diversity adds an essential ingredient to the educational 

process is one of the tenets of SUNY Downstate. Many factors, such as race, ethnic or cultural background, academic 

achievement, geographic location, diversity of experiences, leadership roles, and socioeconomic background, are taken 

into consideration in the admissions process. 

A diverse health care work force will be better equipped to provide culturally competent care to an increasingly 

diverse population.
