Post-Baccalaureate Program

What our students say about their experience ...

" I felt encouraged and happy to have been given a second chance to attend my top choice med school. The SUNY at Buffalo Post Baccalaureate program was the only program I knew of that offered guaranteed admission to medical school. It was an opportunity for me to further pursue my dream of becoming a physician"

"Whether someone has previous working experience or not, the important factor is being able to effectively manage your stipend. My advice is to make a budget and try to stick to it."

" My experience living in the dorm during the summer was fine. I roomed with a really chill person and we talked every night about where we each came from; we learned a lot about each other. "

" As an MCAT student, I found the spring semester to be more critical and required serious time management and stress control skills. The course load was managed by completing my assignments and readings in a timely fashion. I also met with some of my professors to clarify concepts that I needed help with. Two of the most effective strategies that helped me with my course load were tutorials and INTERACTING with my post-bacc peers during study periods. "

" The one word I would use to summarize my year here in Buffalo is surprising. Medical school went from the forbidden and unattainable to the real and manageable. "
