N.C. A&T - ECU Brody School of Medicine
Early Assurance Scholars Program Application is LIVE!
About the EASP
The North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (N.C. A&T) and East Carolina University - Brody School of Medicine (BSOM) Early Assurance Scholar's Program (EASP) was developed to provide a unique opportunity for select students at N.C. A&T pursuing a career in medicine. Outstanding students entering N.C. A&T as freshmen may apply for the EASP. Up to eight scholars will be selected to participate in the program each year. Up to two top EASP student scholars may be selected for guaranteed seats in the BSOM entering class, four years in advance. Provided that the program requirements are maintained, and the SAT math and verbal combined scores are greater than or equal to 1200 (old SAT) or 1270 (new SAT) or an ACT composite score of 27 or greater, the top two students will not be required to take the MCAT. All participants will be required to complete a 'common curriculum track' in order to complete all medical school requirements and be prepared to take the MCAT (if required) by the end of the junior year. The EASP is NOT discipline specific. Students interested in all majors at N.C. A&T, with the exception of nursing, may apply.
