FACTS - Applicants, Matriculants and Graduates

The numbers of 2002, 2003 and 2004 matriculants by race and ethnicity within sex are displayed below. These data reflect the results of the new separate race and ethnicity questions allowing multiple responses, first used by AMCAS in 2002, and are not directly comparable to prior years.  If you wish to print this table in its entirety, we recommend that you use the "landscape" setting on your printer, rather than the default "portrait" setting. Please email us if you need further assistance or have additional inquiries.
