"Long School of Medicine provides a very supportive environment for all students, especially minority students. The Office for Undergraduate Medical Education and Office for Inclusion and Diversity have met with the Latino Medical Student Association and Student National Medical Association student chapters to make sure that our members have the support and resources we need to excel.
