California medical schools are some of the best in the nation.Many of the medical schools in California are in the top10 medical schools, top 20 medical schools, and top 50 medical schools.
If you are a California resident, you are in luck! You havesix public California medical schools that will likely prefer you over out-of-state medical school applicants and will definitely give you a tuition break. To learn more about public vs private medical schools, click here.
If you want to be accepted to one of the California medical schools, you'll need to study hard for the MCATand get good grades in your required classes.
However, it takes a lot more than that to get accepted to one of the medical schools in California.
Since California medical schools are very competitive, you may benefit from using professional services to help you make your dream of acceptance to a California medical school a reality.
This is a team of former medical school admissions committee members who are dedicated to helping you succeed as an applicant. They understand what medical schools are looking for and how to make you stand out. They're so good, in fact, that I joined them! They have a number of programs available to fit your needs.
The MedSchoolCoach Gold Package has an amazing record of success, placing 100% of their students in an MD or DO school and 85% of their students in an MD school. It doesn't get better than that! Also, click here for current discounts from MedSchoolCoach.
Coaching can be expensive, but think of it as an investment. For whatever, you spend, you'll get 30+ years of $150,000 to $500,000 as a doctor. That's a great return on investment! Click here to check out MedSchoolCoach.
Now on to what you came to this page for! Medical schools in California are listed below with the 2011 research rank by US World and News Report. Not all schools are ranked. If you notice differences between the GPA listed here and the GPA listed on the Top 100 Medical Schools page, that's because the GPA here is an average given by the school and the GPA on the Top 100 page is a median GPA for this year.
US World and News Report Rank: #13
Location: Los Angeles, CA
Average GPA: 3.81
Accepts International Students: Yes
UC Davis Medical School
US World and News Report Rank: #42
Location: Sacramento, CA
Average GPA: 3.66
Accepts International Students: Yes
UC San Diego School of Medicine
US World and News Report Rank: #42
Location: Irvine, CA
Average GPA: 3.66
Accepts International Students: No
US World and News Report Rank: #5
Location: San Francisco, CA
Average GPA: 3.71, 3.73 science
Accepts International Students: Yes
UC Riverside School of Medicine
There are also several California medical schools that are private. Private medical schools have the advantage of not giving favor to people from a certain state of residence. They are also some of the most respected schools in the nation. However, they are more expensive. Although, recently the tuition forpublic California medical schools has gone up and is now approaching the cost of private medical schools in California.A lot of this is due to the budget issues in California currently.Here are the private schools:
Stanford Medical School
US World and News Report Rank: #5
Location: Stanford, CA
Average GPA: 3.81
Accepts International Students: Yes
USC Medical School
US World and News Report Rank: Not ranked
Location: Loma Linda, CA
Average GPA: 3.8
Accepts International Students: Yes
Another option for California medical schools are the osteopathic schools. Osteopathic schools award the DO degree, vs the MD degree from allopathic schools. Osteopathic schools have more of a "holistic" focus, thinking about the whole person in treating disease. These schools also train in osteopathic manipulative medicine, which involves manipulating the body in order to treat disease. These schools are all private schools and generally have lower average GPA and MCAT scores for entering students than allopathic schools, although as you can see, they're not that much lower.
Touro University College of Osteopathic Medicine
Western University of Health Sciences
US News and World Report: Not ranked
Location: Pomona, CA
Average GPA: 3.53 (3.47 science)
Accepts International Students: Yes. Requires F-1 Student visa.
As you can see, you have several California medical schools to choose from. Whether you want to stay close to home or come out to theWest Coast,California is a great place to live. If you are a California resident, you do have an advantage as there are several public schools to choose from. However, as you can tell, all of the California medical schools are very competitive. MCAT and GPA are part ofwhat will get you into medical school, but there's a lot more you need to do.
Good luck to you as you apply and come back often for more information about medical schools in California and applying to and succeeding in medical school!
The medical school admissions process can is very difficult. Getting into your best medical school is not something that you should leave to chance! This site is designed to help you get intothe school of your choice, maybe that'sa California medical school! Check out my admissions page for understanding the admissions process.
Some students find it useful to employ a service to help them withgetting into medical school. For a school as competitive as these, I would highly recommend coaching. There are many companies that will help you with this, but my recommendation is MedSchoolCoach.
MedSchoolCoach is run by doctors with experience on admissions committees. This makes a big difference as many companies are run by business people or others without this essential experience. They also have an excellent track record, placing 100% of students in an MD or DOprogram and 87% in an MD program for those who sign up for their gold package.They also offer help with personal statements , interviews and help on choosing which schools to apply to. They are the company I recommend.
I also like them because their prices are very affordable compared to other companies you could choose. Also, click here for current discounts from MedSchoolCoach. Remember, about 60% of applicants are not accepted to any medical school! Don't be one of the 60%! The cost of reapplying could easily be as much as getting help the first time around to help you get accepted. You can also specifically request that I work with you on your application if you wish. I served on the UCLA admissions and work particularly with essays, AMCAS applications, general advising, and have experience with California and Texas schools. I'd be happy to help you get into the school of your choice! Click here to visit MedSchoolCoach
