Graduation Rates

While the vast majority of students admitted to the UAMS College of Medicine graduate in four years, as can be seen on this graph, the College does allow up to seven years to complete the degree (and even longer for students in the formal M.D./Ph.D. degree program).  Some students need the extra time for academic reasons, but the additional time can also be used for personal leaves of absence when arranged through the Academic Affairs office.
