The Long School of Medicine states its holistic review gives balanced consideration to experiences, attributes and academic metrics, and asks how the individual might contribute value as a student and physician. The personal attributes it names are integrity, maturity, motivation, judgment, resilience and resourcefulness. The mission is meeting the health-related needs of Texans, with an explicit commitment to cultural competency in a majority-Hispanic San Antonio and South Texas region, so Spanish-language ability and service to South Texas communities carry real weight.

Watch out: 'Balanced consideration' cuts both ways: unusually strong metrics do not offset thin experiences here, and vice versa. Texas residency dominates, and the school is among the more selective Texas publics.
