About the School
Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine (HMSOM), located in Nutley, New Jersey, was established in 2015 as the state's first private medical school in decades. Initially affiliated with Seton Hall University, HMSOM became independent in 2020.

From the outset, students are exposed to clinical experiences, working closely with patients and healthcare professionals. This hands-on approach is complemented by a problem-based learning (PBL) model, which encourages students to work in teams to solve complex health problems. This model aims to foster a deep understanding of the biomedical sciences, along with the development of critical thinking and communication skills.
