The mission of the UC Postbaccalaureate Consortium, a partnership of postbaccalaureate premedical programs at the University of California Schools of Medicine, is to increase the number of physicians who practice in shortage areas of California, by assisting capable and dedicated students from disadvantaged backgrounds in gaining admission to medical school. The program is specifically designed for California residents who have a great desire to go to medical school, who have demonstrated a commitment to their communities through service, and who show academic potential.
The University of California Schools of Medicine offer comprehensive postbaccalaureate programs intended to support students from educationally and economically disadvantaged backgrounds in gaining admission to medical school. The programs seek students who are committed to practicing in underserved communities of California.
Located at UC Davis, UC Irvine, UC Los Angeles, UC Riverside and UC San Francisco, each program provides MCAT preparation, enrollment in upper division science courses, and guidance throughout the medical school application process.
