The curriculum is delivered similarly to our medical school through independent learning modules, in-class conferences, and laboratory components conducted at the Center City Campus by the medical school faculty.

The Intensive Medical Sciences program begins in August and ends in May. This allows students time to apply to and gain admission to medical schools while still in the program.

Since many students are accepted into medical school after only one year of the program, financing one year of tuition is another significant benefit. In addition, the tuition for the IMS program is competitively priced to similar one-year Master’s programs.

Please know that it is not prudent for every student admitted into the Intensive Medical Sciences program to apply to medical school while attending the program. Our advisors will help determine whether a student needs to first establish their strong academic performance or enhance other aspects of their application during a growth year after graduation.
