Georgia residency plus documented engagement with underserved communities. Over 90% of seats go to Georgia residents, and MCG's secondary explicitly asks applicants to describe their engagement or personal experience with underserved communities, which makes that experience close to a stated requirement rather than a bonus. Sustained service and primary-care interest fit the mission; nearly half of graduates stay in Georgia.
Watch out: Out-of-state applicants face a very narrow path regardless of metrics. A file with no service history is poorly matched to a school whose secondary question is built around it.
