UR ranks among best medical schools in the nation for research, primary care
Listen to this articleU.S. News & World Report on Tuesday released the 2024 Best Medical Schools in Research and 2024 Best Medical Schools in Primary Care, with the University of Rochester appearing on both.
The School of Medicine and Dentistry at UR tied for 32nd place on the Best Medical Schools: Research list and tied for 40th place on the Best Medical Schools: Primary Care list.
Both lists evaluated schools on faculty resources and the academic achievement of incoming students. The research-focused evaluation also factored in medical research grants, while primary care instead factored in graduate placement and practice in the primary care fields.
Additionally, the local university tied for 58th place on the Most Diverse Medical Schools, ranked 53rd on the Most Graduates Practicing in Medically Underserved Areas list, tied for 128th on the Most Graduates Practicing in Primary Care Fields list and ranked 87th on the Most Graduates Practicing in Rural Areas list.
UR’s School of Medicine and Dentistry enrolls 435 students and has a 5.6 percent acceptance rate. Full-time annual tuition is $65,920.
“Choosing a medical school that complements a student’s learning style and career goals is crucial for future physicians,” said LaMont Jones, managing editor of Education at U.S. News. “U.S. News’ Best Medical Schools is an excellent resource for prospective students to find comparable information they need for evaluating medical schools in one accessible place.”
