Admissions and Enrollment Mission Statement
The mission of the Admissions Office is to recruit and admit for the Eastern Virginia School of Medicine and EVMS School of Health Professions a qualified student population with diverse backgrounds, attributes, and experiences.
Our future students continue to include women, those who are traditionally underrepresented in medicine including ethnic and racial minorities, veterans and those with military affiliations, applicants from rural areas and applicants from disadvantaged backgrounds. We utilize a holistic process when considering applicants, including prior academic achievement and other non-cognitive factors such as altruism, compassion, and empathy.
We strive to provide outstanding service to prospective students, current students, and alumni by communicating the admissions procedures, requirements, and standards. The Admissions Office will employ admission processes grounded in integrity, efficiency, and transparency.
