Applying for Nomination to a Linkage Program

Students who have spent the time researching linkage schools and meeting with their advisor should then consider applying for nomination to a linkage program.

Timeline

For specific dates and details, please consult the timeline. Below is an overview of the timeline applying for nomination.

Fall Semester: Internal Application Submission

• Applicants must complete and submit the internal application by the date in December specified on the timeline.
• Applicants must request letters of recommendation from faculty for courses already completed, from supervisors, from the undergraduate college, and from others who may be able to write insightfully about the applicant.

Spring Semester

• At the beginning of the spring semester, after fall grades become available, the Premedical Committee will announce its nomination decisions.

Nomination Decisions

Nominations are made at the discretion of the Premedical Committee. Decisions are non-negotiable and are not open to petition.

Students who are nominated for linkage by the Premedical Committee are by no means guaranteed acceptance into the linkage school.
