Hi all! Would like some quick input on while choosing between these two wonderful programs. KCU Pros Pass/fail A bit more reputable from what I’ve gathered, original 5 DO and all that Affiliated residency programs Cons In the Midwest (I grew up on the East Coast–particularly Florida–and I...

Personal: I am a Florida resident. I have family in Kansas and Puerto Rico. I am not sure which school to enter, so I gather some information below and appreciate your thoughts. Professional/Academic: I am an untraditional student and have work experience as well as research publications. I...

Hello!! I am grateful to be accepted into 2 schools with amazing programs but I need help deciding between the two. Here's what I'm thinking and considering between the two schools: KCU + good research + much much cheaper than KCU (~100k cheaper) + good test scores + 100% match rate for the...

Hello, I could really use some knowledgeable insight to help me make my decision. I am planning on going the IM route for residency and would like to end up in or as close to DC as possible, as that’s where my partner will be. Not sure how much the school (in my case) impacts that possibility. I...

Hello. I was accepted into MSUCOM in April but I found out today 5.8.20 that I moved up on the waitlist at KCUCOM and now have an offer. From what I understand you can only hold 1 acceptance until may 15th and then must make a choice. I am from jersey so both schools are out of state for me, so...

Hi folks! Been going back and forth on this for weeks now and I have two days left to decide. Would really appreciate some advice! Side note, I am from CA and I am interested in Internal Medicine and EM Touro NV Pros location/closer to home many placements in CA 3rd year rotations within 40...

Hey guys, I have a quick question for y’all! I am a current DO applicant but most likely won’t get in this year so I’m planning on doing a post Bacc program with either KCU or ARCOM. I was wondering what your thoughts were on either one? I interviewed for ARCOM’s med school this year but was...

Hi everyone! I am fortunate enough to have been accepted into KCU (main campus), Nova and DMU and am having trouble deciding which school to go to. I’m from Florida, and Nova would be a three hour drive from my family, so my heart is telling me to go to Nova, but the 2018-2019 class has a 91%...

Okay fam, I've been fortunate enough to have a choice for schooling this cycle, so I would love some input from y'all. I'm deciding between KCU-KC, ATSU-SOMA, and TUNCOM. KCU-KC: Pros: - Loved the campus and the vibe from students - The statistics concerning boards and match placement speaks...

Hello everyone, Have multiple acceptances to DO programs, and narrowed it down to these two. I am a Florida resident. NSU's declining board scores, along with the fact that I was accepted to a new campus with very little known quantities is definitely concerning to me. However, I am a FL...

Hey everyone! I am grateful to have gotten three acceptances from KCU (kansas city, MO), LMU (harrogate, TN) and BCOM (las cruces, NM). I already made a deposit at LMU because their deadline came before I received the other acceptances. However, I have to make a decision very soon because BCOM's...

Hey guys, I'm deciding between these two schools and I'd love your thoughts. KCUMB KC campus pros: high board score averages- potentially due to the famous rigorous academics here at KCU one of the first osteopathic medical schools-great reputation has one of the best military track programs...

I know, I know. This thread has been made multiple times. I just really want some new input because I'm still struggling to decide after reading every recent post made about DMU and KCU rotations, etc. KCU was my #1 choice at the beginning of the cycle due to residency match placements and...

Hello I would like to know if anyone can help me with the schedule for Kansas City school of medicine and bio sciences. I just got my schedule and I believe the calendar I picked was the correct one, but can anyone confirm the schedule for first year. Is the last class BEFORE thanksgiving for...

Hi, I am about to start school at KCU-COM and I am feeling rather nervous before I start med school. I know I am a hard worker, adapt well if I need help and I can study for hours if needed. But I have the thought in the back of my mind saying "What if it won't be enough?". I have heard horror...

Hi all! I hope everyone is doing well. Students that are applying to KCU-COM or are already there, which campus did you choose to apply to and why? I understand there are differences in the way that classes run (mandatory attendance, dress code, etc.), but aside from those, what else steered...

Rather than be stuck in the KCU-KC thread, I figured it would be nice to have a thread of our own. Anyone else excited for July?

Hey! I have a quick question, I was accepted to KCU-COM and the day of the interview, I was given a folder for apartments that was literally across the street for students who attend KCU-COM. Can anyone tell me what the place was called? It was an old hospital that is now used as a apartment...

Hey everyone! I was accepted to KCU-COM and ACOM and I have to make a decision. I really did love KCU-COM and it's preparation in boards and rotations, BUT I also really loved ACOM! Both campuses were amazing! However I have to make a decision soon and I don't have much time to do it. Any...

Hello, I have a very quick question! I have an interview in Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences on the 24th of this month and I've been practicing many general questions but I was wondering, is there a list somewhere that shows interview questions more frequently asked at KCUCOM...

Hey I have a really quick question! I wanted to know if anyone knows the teaching style in KCUCOM and Touro-Nevada compared to ACOM? So I got accepted to ACOM and I love their teaching style which is heavily team based. I rejected LECOM because the teaching style is more PBL rather than TBL, so...

Hello all, looking for advise here. I was recently accepted to OU-HCOM, and have an interview coming up in a week for kansas city university (KCUMB). I was wondering if I should cancel and save the flight mileage for something else (I am flying from Ohio). In state tuition is cheaper at OU...

Hey y'all! I got accepted to KCUMB and was hoping to get started early on looking for housing! If anyone else is looking for a roommate (or just wanting to connect with people who will be in the same medical school class at KCUMB:)) please reply here! I am female and I am looking for 1-2...
