Thomas Jefferson University Reviews of Doctorates in Health Sciences

"This school is great! I thoroughly enjoy the campus facilities (including the library), faculty assistance, classes, flexibility in scheduling, 2+2 academic calendar, and center city Philadelphia itself. I spend lots of time in local coffee shops with study groups. Everyone is super friendly and eager to help each other out. This is not a cut-throat environment like at some other medical schools. Plus, SKMC recently received a large donation of 11million dollars - many more amenities to come for students! Highly recommend this program."

"I am currently a first year medical student at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia. When it comes to the quality of my education and staff support, I could not have asked for a more receptive environment. From my first day here, we as students have been encouraged to reach out to professors and doctors as a way to network and meet potential mentors, which can be an invaluable resource. The one difficulty with my graduate program is the astronomical costs. My cost of attendance for the academic year is a little over 70k/year. Without the help of financial aid and scholarships the overall bill can be quite daunting."

"I went to undergraduate at Whitman college it was definitely the most fun and educational experience of my life. I made a lot of great friends there and wouldn't have traded that experience for anything. Then I went to jefferson medical college, I couldn't have my current job without the degree and I'm certainly glad I got the opportunity and experience. But I mostly worked and studied. It was good in it's own way and living in philadelphia was fun."

"I feel that Jefferson Medical College is a great place to go to medical school. All of the material is presented in a clinically-relevant fashion. The curriculum set-up is very conducive to time management and maintenance of a social life. All of the students are incredibly nice, helpful, and passionate. Course management by the administration can be a bit disorganized at times, however. Additionally, I wish that JMC would make better use of available technology for some courses."

"Jefferson Medical College is a great school that fosters collaboration rather than competition between students, helping to maintain a happy and connected student body better able to manage the workload."
