The Washington, Alaska, Montana, and Idaho Program in Decentralized Medical Education began in 1971. Since that time, more than 400 students have participated in the University Phase of the program. This article presents a modelfor evaluating the basic science portion of the program in which the first year of medical school is taught at sites remote from the medical center in Seattle, Washington. The article describes a methodology for assessing student performance and student and faculty satisfaction with the program. The results indicate (1) that students at remote sites are indistinguishable from those students who study at the University of Washington School of Medicine and (2) that they choose primary care pathways and residencies at a greater rate than their classmates at the School of Medicine.
