NYU Grossman Long Island School of Medicine seeks to improve the health of the communities we serve by advancing medical education, scientific discovery, and the delivery of comprehensive, equitable, and collaborative healthcare.

Our mission is to develop preeminent physician leaders and a diverse workforce through scholarship and innovative medical education design and anchored in the principles of primary care and health systems science.

Founded in 2019, NYU Grossman Long Island School of Medicine fulfills the pressing need to train the next generation of general practitioners in the fields of primary care medicine and medical leaders in health systems science. Our accelerated three-year MD program is focused exclusively on primary care, and the costs of attendance are offset by our Full-Tuition Scholarships and other types of financial aid.

To further advance our primary care mission, upon admission, students are offered a directed pathway into one of four residency training programs: internal medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, or general surgery at NYU Langone Hospital—Long Island through the National Resident Matching Program. This provides students with the unique opportunity to establish themselves within a residency training program while in medical school.

In 2023, our school received full accreditation from the Liaison Committee on Medical Education, a testament to our dedication to excellence and exceptionalism. The school's programs are also registered with the New York State Education Department (NYSED) and NYU is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE).

Our Core Values

NYU Grossman Long Island School of Medicine’s core values—performance, respect, integrity, diversity, and excellence—align with NYU Langone Health’s trifold mission to care, teach, and discover. We believe our five core values enable us to build on a tradition of service, foster a culture of collaboration and teamwork, and better meet the needs of those we serve.

Every member of our community contributes to our success and mission by educating future physicians and healthcare providers, performing innovative research, and providing quality patient care.

We achieve our performance goals through accountability, responsibility, and dedication to collaborative learning and professional growth, and uphold our commitment to fostering a respectful community through open and professional communication, active listening, resource sharing, and the recognition of the contributions of our team members.

We sustain integrity by setting high standards for ethics, trust, and honesty. Our diverse and inclusive environment champions cultural competence and embraces a wide breadth of resources, skills, ideas, and knowledge to create opportunities for those traditionally underrepresented in medicine.

Our devotion to excellence in primary care and health systems science is achieved by promoting quality, innovation, and safety to achieve world-class patient care, education, and research.
