<p>There is not a USF site on CC, so I am guessing questions can be posted here. I would appreciate any opinions on the Honors College at USF and/or the BS/MD program there.</p>
<p>USF's medical school is ranked # 3 in the state of florida after UF/Miami.
Don't see any reason to second guess getting into the BS/MD 7 yr program.
All the stress you'll seeing four years by people going thru the med school application process will reafirm you made the right choice.

Accelereated</a> Programs, 7 Yr. Medical Program - USF Honors College</p>
<p>The only negatives I have heard about all 7 year programs is that you better be 100% sure you want to be a doctor.</p>
<p>Dont know anything about their actual honors college, sorry.</p>

<p>You can probably start the USF BS/MD program and do really well you first two years, including EC's, and then try and get into UF's "unofficial" 7 year program. The UF one doesn't require the MCAT either. USF one does.</p>
<p>what is the unofficial 7 year uf program?</p>
<p>I did read that you are not permitted to apply to any medical school other than USF in the 7 year program. I would hope that would mean that you would be accepted in the end to theirs.</p>
<p>How does USF rank overall outside of Florida? The climate is very much like ours and I feel it may be a great fit for DS.</p>

<p>Junior</a> Honors Medical Program - College of Medicine, University of Florida</p>
<p>You do 2 years of ugrad, apply for the program, a transition year, and then you start med school.</p>

<p>I would not recommend a program that only acceptes 12 students per year.</p>
<p>"While this program is at present limited to 12 students per year, expansion of the program is anticipated over the next two years."</p>
<p>Just mentioning an option. </p>
<p>I know some of the students from the past 3 classes and they seem to really enjoy it. The hard part is completing everything in 2 years to make you competitive. That includes grades, EC's, research, and getting recommendation letters. Like one of them from this years class got a publication before ending her second year. I wished I had applied but I wasn't died set on UF at that point.</p>
<p>Is early admission allowed in USF honors med. program for eleventh graders?
I don’t think they allow early admissions, but I’m not sure of the requirements and I can’t find them on the website. </p>
<p>Help?</p>
<p>USF is under “S” in College Confidential. It stands for South Florida, just like UF is under “F” for Florida.</p>
