MSN to MD program

Are there any MSN to MD programs? If so, I would appreciate it if you could provide a link to that website. thanks

There are no MSN to MD programs. If one would like to become a physician, they need to complete the pre-med requirements, take the MCAT, and apply and attend an MD or DO school. There are no shortcuts.

There are MSN to MD programs, but I would hardly call it a short cut. From what I understand they are 3 years instead of 4...but that's not a shortcut because you have to spend the extra time getting an MSN first. But they DO exist...my coworkers and I were looking at one a couple weeks again. I don't remember the name or the website, but if none get posted on here in the next couple days I will catch up with her and get the links and PM them to you. But yes, they do exist.

we're talking about MSN to Doctor of Medicine programs? None of the accredited American allopathic medical schools have MSN to MD.

I don't remember the program being an MSN to DO program. I work again tomorrow and I will either ask said chica or email her to get the information we were looking at. I wasn't paying that much attention at the time because I really didn't care too much. If/when I get the information, I'll just re-find this thread and put it here.

Sounds good. I'm pretty familiar with the medical school application process (strongly considered it), and I'm sure that none of the 131 AAMC accredited medical schools offer an MSN to MD program. They are pretty strict on not accepting credits from non-medical schools, or advanced standing for PAs/NPs, and that one must complete the pre-med sequence and the MCAT to gain admission. The only exceptions are accelerated programs that accept you out of high school (BS or BA/MD programs) or early assurance programs for undergrads with very high overall and science GPAs.

If anything, there would be a PA to MD program first, as the course structure is more transferable to MD schools.

Not nearly enough science related subjects in nursing school. If you want an MD skip the masters and pursue a pre med backgound to help your chances
