On December 7, the University of Minnesota Board of Regents officially approved creating a new medical school campus in St. Cloud.
The first cohort, beginning in 2025, will include 24 students. It is expected that the program will accommodate 96 students by 2029.
"This is an exciting day for Minnesota and its families and communities," said Jakub Tolar, MD, PhD, dean of the University’s Medical School and vice president of clinical affairs. "This program expands on our commitment to greater Minnesota, building on our highly regarded programs in Duluth and through our Rural Physician Associates Program."
The campus will be located at CentraCare and will focus on training physicians to care for rural Minnesotans and immigrant populations.
