BRONX, N.Y., Feb. 26, 2024 ~ Bronx, N.Y. - In a historic announcement, Dr. Philip Ozuah, President and CEO of Montefiore Einstein, revealed that Albert Einstein College of Medicine has received a transformational gift from Ruth L. Gottesman, Ed.D., Chair of the Einstein Board of Trustees and Montefiore Health System board member. This generous donation, the largest ever made to any medical school in the country, will have a profound impact on the future of medical education.
The gift, announced on February 26th, 2024 at a press conference held at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, will ensure that no student at the institution will have to pay tuition again. "This donation radically revolutionizes our ability to continue attracting students who are committed to our mission, not just those who can afford it," said Dr. Yaron Tomer, the Marilyn and Stanley Katz Dean at Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
The transformational gift is intended to attract a talented and diverse pool of individuals who may not otherwise have the means to pursue a medical education. It will enable generations of healthcare leaders who will advance the boundaries of research and care without being burdened by crushing loan indebtedness.

With this donation, all current fourth-year students will be reimbursed their spring 2024 semester tuition and all students moving forward will receive free tuition at Albert Einstein College of Medicine starting in August of this year. This move aligns with the college's founding mission in 1955 to welcome all students without restrictions.
Dr. Gottesman's association with Albert Einstein College of Medicine dates back to 1968 when she joined its Children's Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center (CERC). Her dedication and philanthropic vision have helped make Einstein the remarkable institution it is today. She has been an enormously generous donor in the past to Einstein's innovative research and education initiatives.
"I am profoundly grateful to Dr. Gottesman for this historic and transformational gift. I believe we can change healthcare history when we recognize that access is the path to excellence," said Philip O. Ozuah, M.D., Ph.D., President and CEO of Montefiore Einstein.

Dr. Gottesman's late husband, David S. Gottesman, also played a significant role in this donation. "I am very thankful to my late husband, Sandy, for leaving these funds in my care, and I feel blessed to be given the great privilege of making this gift to such a worthy cause," said Ruth L. Gottesman.
The impact of this gift will be felt for generations to come as it will allow students to pursue their dreams without the financial burden of tuition. "Each year, well over 100 students enter Albert Einstein College of Medicine in their quest for degrees in medicine and science. They leave as superbly trained scientists and compassionate and knowledgeable physicians," said Dan Tishman, Chair of the Board of Trustees of Montefiore Einstein.
This historic donation has been met with overwhelming gratitude from the Montefiore Einstein community. "Ruth Gottesman's extraordinary and unprecedented gift gives new meaning to selfless determination and transformational philanthropy," said Tishman.
The legacy of this gift will continue to inspire future generations at Albert Einstein College of Medicine as they strive towards excellence in healthcare and medical education.
