Accelerated programs allow you to earn a degree in less time, which could mean significantly lower tuition costs, less student debt, and a faster path to residency. Many 3-year programs are also designed to place students directly into high-need specialties like primary care, helping you make an impact sooner, especially in communities that need physicians the most.until October 30, 2025October 29, 2025Save Time & Tuition: Is a 3-Year Med School Program Right for You?
