At this time the UMass Chan Medical School T.H. Chan School of Medicine Admissions Office is accepting Pass/Fail grades for the Spring, Summer and Fall 2020 semesters, during the time frame when students educational experiences and academic evaluations are impacted by the COVID19 pandemic.

Grades are preferred, but Pass/Fail is acceptable when this is the only option students are offered by their institutions.

Likewise, online coursework is acceptable during time frames when distance learning is the only option for students.

All prerequisite coursework must be completed prior to matriculation, if accepted.

As always, students’ academic preparedness for medical school is evaluated holistically and includes a number of factors such as: GPA, trajectory of GPA, rigor of coursework and MCAT performance.
