History of the School

In 1970, Rutgers joined with the New Jersey Medical School and the New Jersey Dental School to form a four year medical school in order to better serve its students. This new institution was called College of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (CMDNJ). In June of 1974, the very first Doctor of Medicine degrees were awarded by CMDNJ to the students who had completed them.
In 1981, CMDNJ was changed to the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ).
In July of 1986, it was renamed UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. Since that date, there have been major additions to the campus's research and clinical facilities.

Radiologic Technology Schools Offer Medical Degrees

What if we didn't have medical school equipment? Our doctors would be schooled entirely by books, and not at all with hands on practice in the lab, x-ray division, or surgical areas.

The tuition at this school is actually a lot cheaper than comparable schools but don't let that fool you. You should take a look at the campus and curriculum. I very much enjoyed this school, it was kind of hard to get in so make sure your grades are good, and you reach all the prerequisites this page talks about. There are a few more I think than are listed here but you can go to their site to get the most updated list.
