Juliette Lowe, MS1, interviews Tyler Coyle, Assistant Dean of Admissions at the CU Anschutz School of Medicine. Dr. Coyle describes CU’s admissions process and holistic review, emphasizing healthcare exposure, leadership, scholarship, and curiosity. He also debunks myths about needing a 510+ or being “cooked” if you don’t have your interview by Thanksgiving. Dr. Coyle dives into standards for students with and without gap years, and what makes a meaningful experience. The conversation highlights CU’s collaborative environment, normalization of first-year struggles, and appreciation for resilience and growth mindset in the application process.
