READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

APPLY EARLY!

  • LSUSD maintains a rolling admissions policy. Applications are reviewed and decisions to interview individual candidates are made at regular intervals beginning around August 1. Interviews are conducted and the selection process of each candidate for admission is made until the class is filled.

  • Interviews are required for admission consideration and are scheduled 3-4 weeks in advance. The first offers of admission are extended usually on the first Monday in December.

  • In order for your application to be reviewed in time for fall interviews, LSUSD must receive your completed application much earlier than the Sep. 1st deadline.

 

LETTERS OF EVALUATION

  • A letter of evaluation from your Pre-Professional Committee (preferred, if available) or two letters of evaluation from Basic Science Professors sent directly to AADSAS.

 

APPLICATION FEE

  • Non-refundable application fee of $200 must be paid on the Pre-Admission Payment Portal or by check (payable to LSUHSC) sent to LSUSD. Your application is not complete until we receive your application fee.

 

DAT SCORES

  • Each applicant must complete the DAT and have the official results sent to this school. (Through AADSAS)

  • Applicants to LSUSD should not delay submitting their AADSAS application until they receive DAT results. A DAT score needs to be submitted before Sep. 1st If you are retaking, be sure to update your scores on the AADSAS portal.

  • The DAT should be taken (or retaken) no later than August 1 in order that your scores will reach LSUSD by our application deadline of Sep. 1st. It is strongly recommended that the applicant take the DAT prior to the June AASDAS application process.
