Hi, I’m Kaleb. I am doing some prior research for becoming a doctor. This program sounds interesting. Is it out-dated? I was curious because of the application dates.
Thanks,

This is a current program but the article was written a month before the deadline for that year. I wanted to make sure that any interested student was aware of the upcoming deadline.
Is this program available to transfer students?
No.
