The first top-ranked med school with full-tuition scholarships

As a part of our trifold mission to care, teach, and discover, NYU Langone is devoted to excellence in medical education. NYU Grossman School of Medicine made history in 2018 as the first top-ranked MD program to provide full-tuition scholarships to all students in good standing. This initiative set a new standard in medical education, making it more accessible to the brightest minds. That same year, NYU Langone launched NYU Long Island School of Medicine, the nation’s first tuition-free, three-year medical school dedicated to primary care. In 2023, the school was renamed NYU Grossman Long Island School of Medicine to honor Robert I. Grossman, MD, who served as NYU Langone Health CEO until 2025. It also received a landmark $200 million gift from Kenneth and Elaine Langone, ensuring that aspiring physicians there can continue to pursue their education tuition-free.
