Letters of Recommendation

Three letters of recommendation are required, two from Rice Humanities Professors or instructors (graduate students instructors are ineligible), and one from a science professor, research mentor, or physician with whom you have worked. Please ask your recommenders to attach their signed letter to an e-mail addressed to fb55@rice.edu and to put your name in the subject line.

Unsigned letters will be processed through Adobe Sign and returned to the author for signature.
Requirements for Acceptance into the Program

Application to this program is not open students who have completed the second semester of their junior year as calculated by their intended graduation date.
By checking each box, you are confirming that the statement is true.

I understand that admission into the Facilitated Acceptance program does not guarantee admission to the McGovern Medical School at UTHealth. Students must meet additional requirements (including GPA, MCAT score, TMDSAS, criminal background check, and interview) before admission into McGovern Medical School is granted. [Review additional requirements here: https://med.uth.edu/admissions/admissions/application-process/]
Note: Any exceptions to the above must be requested and approved by the Director of Medical Humanities.
By signing, I verify that the information submitted via this application (including uploaded documents) is accurate to the best of my knowledge.
IMPORTANT: Although you may receive a confirmation from Adobe Sign indicating that your application has been signed and filed, that notice refers to a successful signature on the document. Your application is NOT complete until you press the "Submit" button below. An auto-generated e-mail from the Dean of Humanities' Office will confirm your application has been received.
