Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a minimum MCAT score or GPA requirement?

At St. Matthew’s University School of Medicine, we do not require a minimum MCAT or GPA. Our admissions process is holistic, focusing on the whole applicant rather than just numbers. We look for individuals who demonstrate a genuine passion for medicine, a commitment to serving others, and a strong work ethic. Our goal is to admit students who show not only academic potential but also the character and compassion essential for becoming exceptional physicians.

When is the application deadline?

Our admissions process follows a rolling basis, meaning we accept applications throughout the year. To ensure a smooth enrollment experience, we recommend submitting your application at least two months before the January, May or September semester you plan to enter. This allows ample time to secure your spot. If your application is received after a class has reached capacity, it will be automatically considered for the next available semester.

St. Matthew’s University School of Medicine is not part of the AMCAS application system. However, to simplify the process, applicants are welcome to upload a PDF copy of their AMCAS, AACOMAS, TMDSAS, or OMSAS application through our common application form for consideration.
