VCU participates in AMCAS and invites selected completed and verified applicants to submit a supplemental application; the supplemental should be submitted within 60 days of invitation.

The current interview page describes a Zoom MMI with 6–8 stations. The public pages reviewed do not establish Fall 2027-specific deadlines or requirements, so treat this as a stable process description only. VCU interview

Important dates

The public VCU pages reviewed are generic/undated. Older page language lists regular AMCAS and supplemental timing, but those dates are not asserted here as Fall 2027 dates. Recheck the official cycle page when it is published. VCU prospective applicants

How selection works

VCU describes holistic screening after AMCAS and supplemental review, followed by a Zoom MMI and offer process. The current public page does not publish a complete weighting formula. Use the school’s current criteria as the authority and do not infer an outcome from one metric. VCU prospective applicants

Who this program may suit

VCU may suit applicants who value a Richmond-based MD program with holistic review and a structured Zoom MMI. This is an interpretation of the official admissions pages, not a prediction of fit or admission. Compare VCU’s mission, curriculum, location, cost, and clinical opportunities with your constraints.

Practice and next step

Use the linked practice prompt about fair access under pressure. Record a first response that identifies the stakeholders, explains a defensible fairness principle, and communicates the decision clearly.

Review the recording for one observable weakness, make one adjustment, record again, and compare the attempts.
