The Ivy League medical schools have historically been affiliated with many of the most renowned medical centers in the nation. Most of the schools have multiple primary teaching affiliates, although only the most notable ones are listed on this page. Two of the medical schools, Columbia and Cornell, share a medical campus at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, albeit in separate medical centers (Irving and Weill, respectively).

Ivy League medical schools have some of the best reputations among medical schools in the United States. They are some of the oldest institutions of medical education. In 2023, many of the Ivy League schools (as part of a national trend) stopped sending information to the U.S. News medical school rankings;^[5] as of 2024 all but Yale and Dartmouth chose to withdraw and are currently unranked. Current rankings are listed below.
