Current Applicant Support Series (CASS)
CASS supports UChicago students and alumni during the medical school application process. It provides tailored support in the areas where each applicant feels they need it most. Current applicants may utilize as many or as few of these resources as they wish, based on their personal and scheduling needs. We're here to promote your success, your way!
During the summer before you plan to apply for medical school (e.g., second year summer if applying "straight through"), email Caroline Wilky at cwilky@uchicago.edu to sign up for the upcoming CASS cohort.
