Yale seeks a diverse class of exceptional students who aspire to
careers of leadership in the practice of medicine and the
biomedical sciences. No rigid "cut-offs" are used in evaluating
candidates. University grades, MCAT scores, medical and research
experience, extracurricular activities, and personal qualities
are all considered. State of residence and citizenship are not
factors.
