Washington State University Elson S. Floyd 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: Washington State University Elson S. Floyd received 1,574 applications for 80 seats in the entering class, or about 19.7 applications per seat.

Washington State University Elson S. Floyd mission

To serve Washington and beyond through collaboration and problem-solving in education, research, and health care with a focus on rural communities, Tribal Nations, and people who have been historically marginalized. Our Mission in Action: We seek to enroll candidates who most align with our mission and have similar goals to serve all WA communities, especially rural, Tribal nations, and those who have been historically marginalized. Below are some examples of how we enact our mission. Admissions: • Holistic Review: Our admissions process truly balances an applicant’s experiences and attributes with their metrics in alignment with our mission. Once a threshold combination of GPA and MCAT have been met for a secondary, we blind these metrics – no one ever sees MCAT and GPAs! . • Focus on WA: We consider only those who have ties to/residency in WA. We ultimately hope our graduates will choose to practice in and care for WA communities. • Experiences with rural and/or underserved communities: one of the key experiences we are looking for are those who come from or have experience with these communities. Student Affairs: • Financial education: Between 40-50% of our student body comes from low socioeconomically backgrounds. It is important that we have resources to support them. On our Student Affairs team, we have a Director for Financial Education who meets with students each year to build a plan for debt management. This provides our students with the insights to select a career specialty choice based on their passion rather than their debt. • Our student interest groups include those focused on the broad diversity including Student National Medical Student Association, Latino Medical Student Association, Women in Medicine, Military medicine, Non-Traditional Students, and LGBTQI+ Interest Group. • We partner with the WSU Spokane Office of Native American Health Sciences who helps support our American Indian and Alaska Native students. They also have a Center for Native American Health: https://nativehealth.wsu.edu/center-for-native-american-health/ Curriculum, Assessment, and Learning Support: • Rural/Urban Underserved Rotation: In Year 4, all students are required to complete a rural underserved or urban underserved 4-week rotation as a graduation requirement. • Community-based medical school within a Land Grant institution: As a community-based medical school, we train our students across Washington and within diverse communities including rural, underserved, tribal clinics, and urban clinic/hospitals. This provides our students with broad exposure to diverse populations in WA to help inform them of the challenging health care problems that exist. https://medicine.wsu.edu/community/ • Coaching: Every student will be assigned a faculty academic coach who will be with them all four years. This serves to further support our students toward self-learning and improvement. We also provide students with a USMLE Step 1 Coach. More info about our Student Learning Center: https://medicine.wsu.edu/about/departments-units/student- learning-center/ Graduates: • Our alumni have begun practicing in Washington and serving the communities we hoped they'd serve.

Washington State University Elson S. Floyd 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.
