What does the admissions committee look for in the application? Are applicants who were not accepted in previous years considered equally with new applicants?
The admissions committee considers a variety of factors including your prior academic achievement, GRE scores, relevant employment and life experiences, personal statement, letters of recommendation, and compatibility of your clinical and research interests with those of the program and faculty. The updated application materials for repeat applicants are reviewed according to the same process as those of first-time applicants. However, if you have applied and not been admitted to the program in the past, it is prudent to consider what steps you might take to strengthen your application in preparation for a future admissions cycle.
