Albert Einstein College of Medicine (Einstein) acceptance rate

PreMD does not publish an acceptance rate for individual schools. The free national sources publish applications and matriculants, not the number of offers a school made, so an acceptance rate cannot be calculated from them without inventing the missing number.

What can be published from those figures is the ratio: Albert Einstein College of Medicine (Einstein) received 14,035 applications for 148 seats in the entering class, or about 94.8 applications per seat.

Albert Einstein College of Medicine (Einstein) mission

Albert Einstein College of Medicine is a research-intensive medical school. For more than 60 years, our faculty and staff have set the standard for excellence in medical and graduate education and patient-centered clinical care, and have made major contributions to scientific research enhancing human health in our communities and beyond. Our mission is to prepare students to become knowledgeable, compassionate physicians and innovative scientific investigators, and to create new knowledge. At Albert Einstein College of Medicine, we train M.D. students to understand and embrace their future role as physicians. We foster an environment in which students learn from each other, our expert clinical and research faculty, and our community, through clinical experiences and service- learning opportunities. Our students develop into critical thinkers who embrace the science of medicine and further our understanding of health. We educate future leaders who want to change medicine. Not just within a discipline, but in how healthcare is practiced. Compassion, collaboration, and collegiality are the hallmarks of an Einstein education. From our mission aligned admission process and noncompetitive pass/fail system to our service learning course and opportunities for research and dual degrees, we value and support each student as you pursue your interests and launch your career in medicine. As an Einstein graduate, you leave school prepared to excel as a healer, scientist, advocate, educator, colleague, role model, and life-long learner.

Albert Einstein College of Medicine (Einstein) rankings

PreMD does not publish a ranking of medical schools and does not republish anyone else's. Ranking tables are licensed products, and a number reproduced here without its methodology and its year is worse than no number at all.

What this page publishes instead is the comparison above: where the school's own reported figures sit among the MD programs that report the same figure, with the count of reporting programs stated so the comparison can be judged.
