According to Peter J. Awn, Dean of the Columbia University School of General Studies, the New York University School of Medicine will begin accepting applications in January 2014 for their next entering class.

“We are delighted about this new partnership, which provides highly-qualified students greater access to the world-class medical education offered by NYU,” Awn said.

Linkage is a formal agreement between a postbaccalaureate program and a medical school that enables exceptional students with a strong interest in a specific medical school to accelerate the application process. In addition to this new agreement, the Postbac Premed Program maintains linkage agreements with 13 other medical schools.
