Admission requirements

All applicants initiate the process through AMCAS. UMSOM’s public page lists an AMCAS deadline of November 1 and a secondary deadline of December 1, with an $80 non-refundable fee; applicants receive the secondary after AMCAS is received (application process). The published eligibility language includes U.S. citizens and permanent residents, Canadian citizens, and DACA students in Maryland.

Applicants must submit MCAT scores, letters of recommendation, and supporting credentials. Early Decision applicants use an August 1 AMCAS deadline and August 8 deadline for secondary materials, MCAT, and letters. The public page does not provide a complete prerequisite course list in the cited timeline, so do not infer one here.

• August 1: Early Decision AMCAS deadline.
• August 8: Early Decision secondary, MCAT, and letters deadline.
• November 1: MD AMCAS deadline on the published annual timeline.
• December 1: MD secondary application deadline.
• Early September–early February: interview season.

The page is a recurring timeline rather than a fully year-labelled Fall 2027 schedule. Reconfirm dates and eligibility in the current applicant portal before applying (timeline).

How selection works

UMSOM describes a two-stage AMCAS-to-secondary process. The Committee on Admissions evaluates completed credentials and decides whether to invite an applicant to interview; after interview, outcomes include acceptance, waitlist, or rejection (application process). The public page does not publish a weighting formula or current academic cutoff.

Interview details

Confirmed

Interviews are invitation-only and are scheduled each week on Mondays and Wednesdays from September through early February on the public admissions page (application process).

Not published

The cited page does not publish a current modality, station count, duration, interviewer assignment, scoring rubric, or question list. Do not infer an MMI or panel format.

Who this program may suit

UMSOM’s published process may suit applicants who can demonstrate academic preparation, motivation for medicine, service, communication, and readiness to complete a structured AMCAS and secondary workflow (application process). Eligibility rules differ by citizenship, residency, and DACA status, so applicants should verify their specific pathway before investing in an application.

Practice and next step

Original Videoath practice: Use the linked general fairness prompt to practise a clear answer for an invitation-only interview. Record a timed response, review clarity, empathy, and trade-off reasoning, choose one weakness, adjust the answer, record it again, and compare both attempts. This is general Videoath practice, not a Maryland question.
