Dear colleagues,

 

I wanted to make sure you are all aware of our new non-degree post-bac program that some of your students may be interested in. Our newly established PRIME program at Case Western Reserve University, built in collaboration with our MD admissions team, is currently accepting applications for both the Summer and Fall 2018 semesters.

 

The Post-baccalaureate Readiness Instruction for bioMedical Education (PRIME) program is a post-baccalaureate certificate (non-degree) program for students who need additional preparation to have a competitive application for MD or DO programs, and allows students to raise their undergraduate and undergraduate science GPA's to be more competitive to higher ranking programs.

 

This program is designed for two types of students:

  • Career changers - students who have not yet completed all their pre-med requirements.
  • Academic enhancers - students who need to improve their undergraduate GPA and their foundation in key pre-med content.

Some of the unique and standout features of the PRIME program include:

  • A highly flexible and individually tailored program of study providing each student the preparation they need to be competitive applicants
  • A dedicated program director who has experience advising for medical school admissions and who meets regularly with students one-on-one
  • Problem-based Clinical Inquiry (IQ) coursework designed to give students exposure to medical terminology and clinical reasoning and develop professional growth via self-reflection
  • Specialized Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) preparatory course designed to comprehensively review all MCAT content areas, as well as testing methods. Our course is team taught by our CWRU faculty
  • Offered by a top-40, tier-I research university and housed in a top-25 medical school, with a rich history of research and education
  • Diverse opportunities for shadowing, volunteering, and research in affiliation with 4 world-class health systems (The Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center, VA Medical Center, & MetroHealth Medical Center)
  • Opportunity to interview with the CWRU School of Medicine for select students

Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis per availability in the program. Students may start in any semester.

 

I look forward to connecting with you and answering your questions about PRIME.
