Students who have earned baccalaureate degrees outside the U.S. or Canada are required to complete at least one year of formal coursework in the sciences (about 30 credit hours) in an accredited American college or university prior to making  application to the College of Medicine.  It is recommended that such students also take courses in English if it is not the student’s first language. 

Canadian Grade 13 English will satisfy our one year college level English requirement.

All students, including international students, must take the MCATs by September of the year preceding matriculation.

Over the last few years, there have been a handful of international students enrolled in each class.  This year, there are 6 international students. The academic and non-cognitive standards for acceptance for both international students and U.S. citizens or permanent residents are the same.

Individuals whose studies abroad did not lead to a baccalaureate degree are required to complete an undergraduate degree-granting course of study in the U.S. prior to application.

Although international students are ineligible for U.S. Federal student loans, they are eligible for the Einstein Scholarship and College Loan Funds.

Accepted, non-Canadian international students, must deposit with the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, not later than July 20, 2009 funds to cover estimated tuition for the first two years of medical school, or forfeit their place in the class.  Canadian students must deposit their first year's half-tuition by July 20, 2009.
