AN AAMC CAMPAIGN TO INCREASE DIVERSITY IN MEDICINE

The University of Pittsburgh is one of the four pilot sites of the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) AspiringDocs.org program. The AAMC is strongly committed to changing the face of medicine to address the needs of diverse communities. AspiringDocs.org is a free resource designed to complement and enhance the long-standing efforts of the nation’s medical schools to increase diversity.

The AAMC is the organization that represents all 130 accredited medical schools that grant the M.D. degree and more than 400 major teaching hospitals in the United States. They also administer the MCAT exam and manage the application process for medical school. So, learn from the people in the know! Ask the experts how to nail the MCAT exam, navigate the admissions process, and pay for medical school once you're in. Register Now and find out when the next discussion begins. It's fast, and it's FREE!
