BAcc2MD Program
The BACC2MD program is The University of Toledo's early medical school pathway program offered to high-metric high school students, providing them the opportunity for an early interview with The University of Toledo College of Medicine and Life Sciences M.D. program. Learn more about the BACC2MD program.
M.S.B.S. - Medical Sciences
The primary goal of this program is to educate and train graduate students who have completed all prerequisites required for medical school but wish to enhance their understanding of the biological sciences and potentially improve their academic credentials for applying to medical school. Approximately 50 students are accepted into this one year program. Historically 65 to 80 percent have been successful in matriculating into a medical class the following year. Learn more about the MSBS-MS program.
The MedStart Program
MEDStart is an early assurance program designed to accept students during their junior year of their undergraduate education. The program allows students to enroll into The University of Toledo's College of Medicine program for the next academic year following completion of the four-year baccalaureate education. Learn more about the MEDStart Program.
Transfer with Advanced Standing
Under limited circumstances, students who are currently enrolled in another allopathic medical school can apply for transfer into the UToledo MD program with advanced standing. Learn more about the transfer process.
