Wayne State University

The Wayne State three-year M.D. program is the only one of its kind in Michigan. WSU is among a small group of nationally-recognized schools to offer a three-year alternative to what is traditionally a four-year path. Geared to fit students who have previous health care backgrounds and careers, the program diversifies the School of Medicine's offerings for students who are ready to accelerate into their physician career by completing medical school and receiving a conditional, non-binding acceptance into a Wayne State residency position upon completion.

The Warrior M.D. three-year program

  • Cuts student school time without sacrificing the education received because it is the same nationally-recognized education minus the fourth-year internships and residency preparation

  • Significantly reduces the amount of education debt incurred by eliminating fourth-year costs and allowing new physicians to realize income sooner.

  • Reduces student stress because they will have already been identified for placement in one of Wayne State University's six sponsored residencies
