What medical schools in New Hampshire look for
Median MCAT across New Hampshire runs from 516. Where your score sits in that spread shapes which of them to apply to, so application, so check it before you build a list. What counts as a good MCAT score sets out the national picture, and the percentile tables show what each scaled score means.
Between 3.82 and 3.82 is where median GPA sits. A GPA below that band is still in the conversation with a strong MCAT, and a single cycle is long enough to raise an MCAT score. If you have already tested, the retake calculator prices what another attempt would take, and the score calculator converts an AAMC practice test into a scaled score.

Common questions about medical schools in New Hampshire
How many medical schools are in New Hampshire?
One medical school. Every one is listed in the table above with its median MCAT, median GPA and tuition.
What MCAT score do you need for medical school in New Hampshire?
Median MCAT runs from 516 to 516, so a score at or above 516 puts you in range at about half of them. A median is the midpoint rather than a cut-off, and roughly half of each admitted class scored below it. What counts as a good MCAT score goes through how to read those numbers, and our guide to raising a score covers how to raise one.
What GPA do you need for medical school in New Hampshire?
Medians land between 3.82 and 3.82. A GPA under that band is workable when the MCAT is strong, which is the part of the application still open to change once your transcript is fixed.
How much does medical school cost in New Hampshire?
In-state tuition runs from $72,382 a year at Geisel School of Medicine to $72,382 at Geisel School of Medicine, before living costs. Tuition across the US and Canada sets those against the national range.
Which New Hampshire medical school is easiest to get into?
By median MCAT, Geisel School of Medicine admits at the lowest score of the group at 516. That makes it the most forgiving on numbers, though secondaries, interviews and mission fit still decide the outcome. Our secondary prompt database carries the essays each school asks for.
What is the acceptance rate at medical schools in New Hampshire?
Schools here report roughly 9,487 applications against about 92 seats, which works out near one place for every 103 applications. That is not a per-applicant acceptance rate, because most people apply to fifteen or twenty schools and get counted at each one. Read it as a measure of how crowded each committee's desk is, and as the reason a screening MCAT and GPA come first. Individual schools publish their own rates, and the in-state and out-of-state figures usually differ sharply.
Which application service do New Hampshire medical schools use?
Amcas for one. The table above lists it per school, so you can group your list by service before you start writing.
Are there DO schools in New Hampshire?
No. Every program in New Hampshire awards an MD. Osteopathic programs elsewhere generally admit at lower median scores, so add them to a list built around this state.
Can you get into a medical school in New Hampshire with a low GPA?
It happens, and the MCAT is usually what carries it. With medians between 3.82 and 3.82, a GPA a few tenths under still gets read when the test score sits at or above the median and the rest of the application is strong. An upward trend across your transcript reads better than a flat average, and a post-bacc or a master's is the standard route when the gap is wider than that. Raising an MCAT score is the faster of the two levers.
When should you apply to medical school in New Hampshire?
AMCAS opens in May and submitting in the first weeks of June is the strongest position, because most schools review on a rolling basis. Work back from that to pick a test date on the AAMC calendar, leaving room for a retake if the first score comes in short.
