How To Apply

2013-2014 Timeline

Step 1:

Submit your AMCAS application designating University of Washington MD/PhD.

Deadline: October 15

IMPORTANT! By submitting your AMCAS application for the UW MSTP, your application will automatically be submitted for both the UW MSTP and UW MD-only program. If you are an out of region applicant, you will likely receive notification disqualifying you for the MD-only program. If you follow step 2 below, UW MSTP will still consider your materials.

Step 2:

We’re a little different! You must submit the UW MSTP preliminary application, in addition to the AMCAS application. The application opens July 3rd.

Deadline: January 3 for completed preliminary & supplemental applications and all additional application materials/fees.

Step 3:

Your initial work is done! You can sit back and wait for further instructions. No need to send anything other than the UW MSTP preliminary application until we ask.

Feel free to check out UW MSTP on Facebook or explore our website.

Deadline: If you have not heard from us within 3 weeks, please contact us at mstp@uw.edu.

Step 4:

Watch for an email from mstp@uw.edu inviting you to complete a supplemental application.

Your application will be considered complete when we have received:

  • Your AMCAS Application
  • UW MSTP preliminary application
  • UW MSTP supplemental application
  • Application fee of $35
  • Letters of Recommendation (at least 3 faculty letters) submitted through AMCAS
  • If non US Citizen, proof of permanent residency status.

If needed, instructions for submitting these items will be on your application homepage.

Deadline: January 3 (end of business day) for completed application materials.

Step 5:

You may monitor your application status by checking the homepage of your application.
