The FSSC is chaired by the dean of admissions and reports to the Dean of SOM and reviews applications for entry into the School of Medicine. The goal of the FSSC is to identify and place applicants who will embody the school’s mission, fulfil the 4-year MD program objectives, and become valuable additions to the global healthcare community.
Its majority is composed of teaching faculty members supplemented by administrative deans. The committee ensures that admissions procedures progress ethically in accordance with FSSC bylaws (Appendix XIII) and policies and facilitates the review of performance outcomes relevant to admissions.
