OUWB states that it uses a mission-aligned review model evaluating Experiences, Attributes and Metrics to determine an applicant's fit with its mission, vision and goals, and says the most successful applicants have demonstrated commitment to serving their communities as well as the medical profession. It looks for personal and professional integrity, potential for medical competence, ability to deliver compassionate care, passion for lifelong learning, educational excellence, and an understanding that medicine is both art and science, that last phrase being a real signal that humanistic framing lands here.
Watch out: The reported acceptance rate is around 1.66% with an average GPA near 3.87 and median MCAT near 510, so the published 495 MCAT minimum is far below the competitive level. Only US citizens and permanent residents are eligible.
