Message from the Dean for Medical Education
Dear Prospective Applicant,
I’m so glad you’re considering applying to Harvard Medical School. I hope you’ll spend some time navigating through our site and finding out more about this wonderful institution. Medical education is a demanding experience everywhere, but it helps to be at a school that supports you to be academically successful, cares about your well-being, and allows you to form amazing bonds with the faculty. So much of medical school lies outside of the classroom -- in the clinics and on the wards -- and we’ve got some of the best hospitals around at which to learn and grow as a future doctor. Boston is a vibrant, dynamic, young person’s city, and we strive every day at HMS to have a positive impact on our fellow human beings in this amazing center of education and health care. We look forward to seeing your application – thanks so much for taking the time to learn more about us.
Bernard S. Chang, MD
Dean for Medical Education
