Harvard Medical School:
We require that academic work done outside of the United States or
Canada be supplemented by at least one year of study in a college or
university in the U.S. or Canada. If you have not met this
requirement, then you are not eligible to apply for admissions. All
of the foreign students that have been accepted in recent years have
earned a baccalaureate degree from a college or university in this
country or Canada.
In many countries students enter medical school directly from advanced
secondary school. If you are already enrolled in a medical school,
you would not be eligible to apply for admissions. We are unable to
accept students who wish to transfer from another medical school.
The availability of financial aid to foreign citizens is less
favorable than for students from the United States. Certain loans
coming from the United States Government are restricted to U.S.
citizens.
Our academic requirements and application procedures are listed in the
Medical School Admissions requirements book published yearly by the
Association of American Medical Colleges. All applicants must take
the Medical College Admissions Test administered by the American
College Testing Program (see www.aamc.org).
You can find more information on the World Wide Web:

Dartmouth Medical School
Dear Prospective Transfer Applicant:
Thank you for expressing an interest in transferring to Dartmouth Medical School. Transfer applications may only be considered for entry into the second or third year classes, and is only possible when places are made available in a class as a result of current students leaving or taking leaves of absence. Typically, if we have openings, the number is very small. A decision regarding whether or not places will be available for 2004-05 will be made no sooner than late-February 2004. The deadline for transfer application materials is April 15 and decisions are made during the late spring months.
You should be aware that transfers from foreign medical schools are considered for the year two class only and, unfortunately, we are unable to offer financial assistance to foreign citizens who are not also permanent residents of the United States. When making admissions decisions, we give preference to students at American medical schools who have a compelling reason to transfer to Dartmouth.
Also, we do not accept transfers from schools of dentistry, osteopathic, chiropractic or veterinary medicine. To be eligible for transfer consideration, you must have been matriculated as a medical student and be in good academic standing. If your current medical school requires passing national boards in order to be eligible for promotion, then this requirement must be met before matriculation at Dartmouth.
If you continue to be interested in Dartmouth, please get in touch with us again in the New Year when we will have a better sense of our 2004-05 enrollment.
Please do not hesitate to contact our office again if you have any further questions or concerns. Best wishes as you plan your educational future.
Sincerely,
Andrew G. Welch Director of Admissions

GWU
Students eligible to apply to our second or third-year classes are those
from U.S. or Canadian schools of medicine, those from foreign medical
schools listed by the World Health Organization (WHO), and those enrolled in
osteopathic schools. Students are eligible to apply if they meet our
specific curriculum requirements. All Students from foreign medical schools
and osteopathic schools must provide a passing USMLE Step 1 score (we cannot
review students from these schools with only one-year of medical school
coursework). We cannot sponsor for the USMLE. U.S. medical students
applying for the third year must also submit a passing USMLE score.
Advanced Standing cannot be granted for physician assistant, chiropractic,
dental or podiatry programs. No applications are accepted for the fourth
year class. The number of second or third year positions varies from year
to year. Applicants, if qualified, can apply specifically for the second or
for the third year, or they may express a willingness to consider a position
in either year.
In addition to the USMLE score taken by June 30th of the year in which an
applicant is applying (if applicable), an applicant must submit three
letters of recommendation. One must be from the dean of the medical school
or osteopathic school at which the student is enrolled stating that the
applicant is eligible to continue in that program and giving the reasons for
transfer and an overall evaluation of the student. All applicants must be
in good standing and be eligible to reenter medical/osteopathic school, if
their education has been interrupted. It you cannot meet this requirement,
we cannot accept your application for transfer. A small number of
applicants will be offered interviews in the early summer.
If you are interested in transferring to GW, please note that applicants
must be either US or Canadian Citizens or US Permanent Residents.
Additionally, all applicants must complete at least 90 semester hours at an
accredited US or Canadian college or university at the undergraduate or
graduate level. Eight semester hours (six lecture and two lab) must be
completed in each of the following fields: biology, physics, general
chemistry, and organic chemistry. Six semester hours of English (literature
and/or composition) are also required. The remaining 52 hours can be
completed in any field.

Mercer University School of Medicine
We appreciate your interest in Mercer University School of Medicine. At the present time it is the policy of the Admissions Committee to consider for transfer only legal residents of Georgia into the third year. In addition, you must be currently enrolled in a medical school in satisfactory academic standing, and have achieved a passing score on the USMLE Step 1 examination. The acceptance of transfer students is dependant upon the availability of places in the class. The number of spaces available varies per year from zero to two. It has not been the practice to fill all the available places each year. The application cycle opens January 2.
If you can comply with these criteria and remain interested in applying for transfer, please send a letter stating so to the Office of Admissions along with your transcripts. The letter must confirm the following information:
I. You are interested in transferring as a third year student
II. You are a legal resident of Georgia
III. Currently enrolled in a medical school in satisfactory academic standing
IV. When you took or plan to take the USMLE Step 1 examination.
V. Have all transcripts, including the one from the medical school you are in now, sent to the admissions office.

Brown Medical School:
Thank you for you inquiry regarding Advanced Standing admission to
Brown Medical School.
Occasionally, students are admitted to the Medical School with
advanced standing. Individuals who are currently enrolled in an
accredited school of allopathic or osteopathic medicine located in
the United States or Canada are eligible to apply. Rhode Island
residents* who are currently enrolled in a W.H.O-listed medical
school outside the United States or Canada also may apply.
Individuals who already have graduated from medical school are not
eligible to apply.
Generally, transfers are made at the beginning of the third year of
medical school and only if spaces are anticipated in the class. In
addition to the selection factors described in the application
booklet, consideration is given to unforeseen and compelling personal
circumstances prompting the request for transfer. The Admissions
Committee also considers the degree to which an applicant's previous
medical education matches that of Brown University and prepares the
applicant for continued medical study.
The application packet will be mailed to you in December if openings
are anticipated for the following academic year. If you did not
include your mailing address in your previous email, please write
back with that information. The forms may be accessed electronically
at: http://bms.brown.edu/admissions in December.
* An applicant is considered a Rhode Island resident if a major
portion of his or her support in the past two years has been derived
from income or property subject to taxation in the state of Rhode
Island.
