REVIEWS

Read What Students Are Saying
Unlike other schools that you are going to apply to in hopes of furthering your medical education, Rosalind Franklin is a school that is dedicated to the medical profession. Every single student at this school is enrolled in a program in the medical field. This means that all the resources, equipment, and faculty are there to help only you, the medical profession student. Other universities tend to have more than one industry that they cater to so, it is harder to find resources such as a library that has nothing but medical books in it or even a computer lab with resources to every medical site available to you. Plus. since every student is medical, you have those resources because the person walking past you may be able to help you out as well.
