STEP for MPAS Applicants
STEP is a Cumming School of Medicine program designed to help remove barriers for applicants from underrepresented backgrounds, including but not limited to people who self-identify as Black, racialized, Indigenous, 2SLGBTQ+, persons with diverse abilities or those facing financial barriers.
For the 2024 intake cycle, STEP resources will include MPAS Equity Admissions Pathway (Essay) support only; additional MPAS Mentorship (and Interview) support is planned for 2025. Registrants will be contacted about additional supports for 2025 once they become available.
