Temple/St. Luke’s School of Medicine Educational Excellence with a Commitment to Caring The Admissions Process

For over a decade, the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University/St. Luke’s University Health Network (Temple/St. Luke’s) has offered a distinctive educational opportunity as the Lehigh Valley’s first and only four-year medical school campus. With only 40 students in each class, Temple/St. Luke’s is distinguished by an intimate, interactive learning environment and a personalized educational experience. St. Luke’s has more than 300 faculty members students who are interested get to know during their pre-clinical courses and then go on to rotate with many of the same faculty during their clerkships.

St. Luke’s University Health Network is proud to be one of the Nation’s Top Teaching hospitals. Here, you’ll find cutting-edge medicine and technology in a friendly, collegial setting – and the energy and excitement of an innovative program fully grounded in outstanding practices that come from decades of experience.

Each completed application receives a holistic review, including a variety of objective and subjective factors. When selecting candidates to interview, the academic record, college attended, MCAT scores, recommendations, extracurricular activities, work experience, medically related experience and community activities are all reviewed. The admissions committee does not have a narrow image of who should be admitted, and Temple/St. Luke’s seeks a diverse student body and accepts many “nontraditional” students.

Students who interested in a primary care career and who choose to stay with St. Luke’s after graduation are eligible to receive a tuition reimbursement of up to $175,000 – essentially covering their medical school tuition!
