To go through the process with someone who had been through it so many times was very comforting. If I could choose one thing that I would highlight about Rob’s approach is his honesty. In a time where I had trouble finding an honest opinion about what I needed to do to gain admittance to medical school he let me know exactly what I needed to do.

Future Physician
I received 9 interview invites and 5 MD acceptances. Passport helped me strategically pick out my schools, edit my personal statement and all of my secondaries, and prep for my interviews. I truly don’t think I could have done it without them. Thanks Rob & Passport Team!
Tyler Wilson
Current MD Student
Rob had a masterful way of connecting with our son and quickly developing an efficient and productive relationship. As parents we got out of the way and saw outstanding results quickly. Rob is gifted relationally and knew how to get the best work out of our son and motivate him to complete the arduous college application tasks.

A Comprehensive Step-By-Step Process

Since 2007, our expert medical school application consultants has been helping thousands of students like you. Our comprehensive process means that every detail will be covered and you will be presented to medical schools as your best self.

Our first step is an introductory meeting to help you figure out where you have a chance of getting in. We’ll talk about your goals, your stats, and your questions about your application.

The next step of working together is to figure out your strengths and weaknesses as an applicant. What questions will a medical school committee have about you? How might we answer those questions and accentuate your strengths in your personal statement? What experiences should you talk about in your personal statement, and what strategies should we pursue in your application process?

We move beyond just GPA and MCAT to find which medical schools uniquely fit what you’re looking for. Just hoping to get in somewhere? Not sure what makes one med school different from the next? We can help you come up with a personalized answer to those questions.

After that, our founder – medical school application nerd, Rob Humbracht – will help you choose a list of schools that fit you well and provide a spreadsheet full of useful information to help you convey to each school on your list why it’s a good fit for you.

The essays are probably the most difficult part of the application process for most pre-meds. It starts with the personal statement – a one-page essay designed to answer “Why Medicine” – but continues with the other essays in the primary application, the Most Meaningful Essays, and the Work/Activities section. We will help you brainstorm, outline, and revise each of those essays so that your entire application shines.

We also help from start to finish on the secondary essays. If you apply to 20 schools, you will write 40 to 50 pages of secondary essays. Most companies only help you with one page of secondary essays. One page! Out of 40! We help with a lot more, because we know that the battle for getting in doesn’t stop at your primary.

As you put the final touches on your application, the anxiety builds. Do I use this word or that? Am I really ready to submit? How do I know that I’ve put my best foot forward?

We’ve found the best way to make sure students are 100% ready to submit is to have a mock admissions committee, led by the most senior member of our staff – Passport founder, Rob Humbracht. He will read every word of your primary to make sure it represents you well so that you can submit with confidence.

After your secondaries are in, interview season begins. Our former students have said that their first interview was the hardest, so we help make sure that you are 100% ready for the first one. That starts with a full-on education program (multiple articles and videos) to make sure that you know what to expect on interview day. Then, we pair you with a different advisor – someone you’ve never met – to do your interview preparation and mock interviews. The feeling of our mock interviews closely mimics interview day, whether that’s a traditional interview or the MMI.

More Love for Passport Admissions

Five Star Admissions Consulting Blue

“Worth every cent. I received 24/7 support from every single person I interacted with. Lyn always put my needs and questions first. She was objective and compassionate. Ryan was my rock. He has a gift for writing. I applied to 47 schools and he helped me with every word of my secondaries. That’s superhero status. Rob helped me with my very first interview. Should be a Terrifying experience. He made it easy, gave me good feedback, and I was definitely prepared. I am a non traditional, 5 time mcat taking, pre med (now medical student). I have worked hard. But all of that hard work would have been overlooked if I did not hire this team. Forever grateful.”
