Early Assurance Program
The Early Assurance Program grants admission into Wright State University
Boonshoft School of Medicine for selected undergraduate students of Central
State University, the University of Dayton, Wilberforce University, and Wright
State University. Through this program, premedical students apply in their
sophomore year and are conditionally accepted as medical students at the
completion of their undergraduate work. The Early Assurance Program removes
the uncertainty of acceptance into medical school, allows participants to
focus on their undergraduate education and community service experiences,
and provides enrichment opportunities.
 Applicants
are accepted into the Boonshoft School of Medicine provided they:
- meet the criteria for application (spring of sophomore year) and matriculation
- participate in the medical admissions interview process and receive an
acceptance. (Decisions to accept or reject applicants will be made by July
1 following the applicant's sophomore year.)
- submit a separate application to Wright State's Early Decision Program
through the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS) by August
31 of their junior year.
Applications for entering in 2010 are due by May 1, 2008. For more information on applying, see:
