ATSU-KCOM is the founding college of osteopathic medicine and screens on a published list of dimensions: academic achievement, clinical involvement, interpersonal relations, leadership and service, perseverance, maturity, motivation, osteopathic awareness, and direct exposure to medicine through DO shadowing. It states the ideal candidate not only understands but identifies with osteopathic tenets and philosophy, and can demonstrate a compassionate commitment to medically underserved populations through volunteering or work. Whole person healthcare and community service are named as the values it looks for students to share.

Watch out: DO shadowing is listed as a screening dimension in its own right, so its absence is a direct miss rather than a soft weakness. Hard floors apply: 3.50 cumulative and science GPA and an MCAT of 502 or higher.
