Belmont University Frist College of Medicine 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: Belmont University Frist College of Medicine received 2,831 applications for 54 seats in the entering class, or about 52.4 applications per seat.

Prerequisite coursework

Belmont University Frist College of Medicine interview

Two interviews are included – a traditional open file interview and a structured closed file interview. Each interview lasts 30 minutes. The rest of the interview session is designed for applicants to learn about FCoM and ask questions.

PreMD reads that as a one-on-one interview, closed file, and sets up its interview practice for this school accordingly.

We anticipate our first interview invitations being sent in August.

Candidates will be sent information to review and familiarize themselves with prior to the interview day. During the interview session, there will be plenty of time to ask questions and learn more about the topics important to you in selecting a medical school. Two interviews are conducted. One is a traditional open-file interview with a faculty member or member of the admissions committee lasting approximately 30 minutes. The second is a structured interview conducted by a member of the FCoM community that includes standard questions and the interviewer is blind to all application materials. This interview may feel similar to an MMI experience. As a newer school, the interview day is designed specifically to allow time for applicants to ask questions and learn more about areas of interest.

Regional interviews

Regional interviews are not available. All interviews will be conducted virtually via Zoom. Accepted students will be invited to campus to visit.

Video interview

FCoM will conduct virtual interviews for the 2027 admissions cycle. Applicants can expect information and instructions via email.

Belmont University Frist College of Medicine 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.
