M.D./J.D. Option for RWJMS Students

Robert Wood Johnson Medical School - Camden has established a MD/JD dual program option. Students may apply to this program for Fall of the M2 year. LSAT exams will be completed in the same period. Admitted students will be assigned to a law school/medical school mentor team. The student will sample law school courses during the M3 year -- to confirm interest. Required clerkship schedules will be rearranged so that less time-intensive clerkships are subscribed concurrent with the sampling of law school courses. Following the M3 year, students will enroll full-time in the L1 and L2 academic years. Law course work will continue in summer session following L2 and possibly during available elective time of the M4 year. While enrolled in law school, students will work under a medical school mentor in her/his clinic one-half day every other week to maintain clinical skills. Students will be granted approximately one semester's credit at law school for their medical school course work. Reciprocal credit will be given for law courses in M4 elective times. Given that there are eleven M4 blocks of which nine are required, this program will utilize only one of the customary M4 electives. This elective experience requires approval of the student’s M4 advisor and the Associate Dean for Academic and Student Affairs. The combined program option may be completed in six rather than seven years.
