Applications received for each seat in the entering class. Not an acceptance rate: neither source publishes the number of offers made.
CUNY School 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: CUNY School of Medicine received 59 applications for 59 seats in the entering class, or about 1 applications per seat.

Who receives a secondary: All applicants must also submit an application online to the CUNY School of Medicine Office of Admissions at the same as the primary application for CUNY. The deadline for CUNY is February 1st.
CUNY School of Medicine interview
All applicants invited to three interviews and meet with a current student, a member of the Admissions Committee, and a faculty or administrator interviewer. All interviews are held on campus.
PreMD reads that as a one-on-one interview, held in person, and sets up its interview practice for this school accordingly.
mid-January
Interviews are all face-to- face and take place on campus. The entire session lasts approximately 3 hours. During COVID, interviews take place virtually for 3 hours. Note: interview data reflect the undergraduate portion of the BS/MD program.

CUNY School of Medicine mission
The mission of CUNY School of Medicine is to produce broadly-educated, highly-skilled medical practitioners committed to providing quality health services in communities historically underserved by primary care providers. The School seeks to recruit and educate a talented and motivated pool of students for its BS/MD and Physician Assistant programs, thereby expanding access to medical education for individuals from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds and historically underrepresented communities. CUNY School of Medicine programs achieve academic excellence through rigorous curricula in clinically-oriented basic sciences, population health, research, exposure to a variety of healthcare settings, and professional development.
CUNY School 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.
