The University of Nebraska College of Medicine does not offer transfer or advanced standing to students from foreign medical schools, dental colleges, or graduate programs. If a vacancy exists, application for advanced standing into the third year will be considered from students attending medical schools accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) or the AOA Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation (COCA). The applicant must be eligible for advancement in the medical school of previous enrollment and have compelling reasons for requesting a transfer. Preference is given to residents of Nebraska.
Acceptance is contingent upon successful completion of Step 1 of the USMLE. Transfer students will be considered as enrolled students at the start date of clinical rotations, approximately July 1.
Students who have been dismissed from UNMC or any other medical school will not be considered for transfer/advanced standing at this College of Medicine.
Candidates who desire transfer may request application materials after January 1 by email or phone (402) 559-6140.
The College of Medicine will not be accepting 3rd year transfer applications for 2022.
