Applications must be submitted to the University of Alabama at Birmingham Marnix E. Heersink School of Medicine through The American Medical College Application Service.

Selected students will interview with the UAB Heersink School of Medicine Admissions Committee in Birmingham and spend a half day in Tuscaloosa learning about the regional campus, talking with students and meeting with members of the Primary Care Track Admissions Advisory Committee.
Students not selected for the Primary Care Track will have their application considered for regular admissions.
