Medical Schools with DEI Offices
Too often, medical schools use diversity, equity, inclusion (“DEI”) and like frameworks as a cover for racially discriminatory practices.
On February 14, 2025, the Department of Education gave institutions of higher education receiving federal funds a 14-day deadline to cease all racially discriminatory policies, programs, and practices. The Department noted that many of these offensive policies are justified on the grounds of DEI.
In response, Do No Harm has maintained a list since February 2025 of medical schools that still have DEI offices. As of July 31, 2026, there are DEI offices at 107 out of 163 allopathic medical schools (66%) and 11 out of 47 osteopathic medical schools (23%), for a total of 118 schools out of 210 (56%).
These schools should be on notice: racial discrimination will not be tolerated.
If you know of any programs, grants, processes, and/or scholarships at institutions of higher education using race as a factor, let us know! You can submit your tip using the form linked here.
