The School of Medicine offers a four-year, system-based learning curriculum leading to the MD degree, but other degree options are available to address specific interests of students. The pages in this website and its links contain a wealth of information for prospective students. We understand that the process of applying to medical school can be overwhelming, and we have tried to anticipate and address as many questions as possible. However, if you have questions or concerns not addressed here, please feel free to ask our help.

We are dedicated to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Click here to read the LSUHS Diversity, Equity and Inclusion statement.
