CCOM states its mission as educating osteopathic physicians to provide compassionate, quality care, promote the practice of osteopathic medicine, and encourage lifelong learning, research and service. It considers applicants who possess the academic, professional and personal qualities to become exemplary osteopathic physicians. Research sits in the mission statement itself, which is unusual among DO schools and makes research experience worth more here than at most osteopathic programmes.

Watch out: Rolling admissions with a hard March 1 deadline for all materials including AACOMAS, MCAT, two letters and the supplemental, so a late file competes for a shrinking pool. Applicants are notified within four weeks of interview, meaning early interviews claim seats first.
