Applying to medical school costs most students $2,000-$3,000, including expenses related to interview travel.
Application fees for the various application systems differ slightly:
- The AMCAS processing fee for the primary application is $175, which includes one medical school designation. Each additional school designations are $45. If you apply to 20 schools, the primary application alone costs $1,030.
Each school then has a secondary application fee, which ranges from $25-100.
If you get an interview, you must pay for each flight and the overnight accommodations. Anticipate spending at least $3,000 on the application process. Here is a valuable cost-calculating resource from AAMC (you need to sign in using your AAMC account).
