Meaningful clinical exposure and a genuine commitment to the osteopathic philosophy of care, alongside sustained service or leadership; KCU has essentially no NIH-funded research presence, consistent with a clinically-focused DO program.

Watch out: A research-heavy application with thin clinical exposure or no clear osteopathic-philosophy rationale is a mismatch here.
