Medical schools in the United States require completion of a bachelor’s degree before entering medical school. No specific degree is preferred. In addition to the prerequisite courses, students are expected to include a broad range of humanities and social sciences in their undergraduate studies.

Kansas residents are given preference at the University of Kansas School of Medicine.
