Medical College of Georgia (Augusta University) 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: Medical College of Georgia (Augusta University) received 3,368 applications for 304 seats in the entering class, or about 11.1 applications per seat.
