Hello everyone. As my third (and first successful) cycle closes out, I'm looking at 2 acceptances off of wait-lists right now, with one post-interview up in the air (interviewed literally last week). My first A was from Kansas City University (DO school) at the Joplin campus. My second A was...

Hey guys!! So I've recently been accepted to three pretty amazing schools, feeling incredibly blessed, but the first deposit is dawning on me, and I'd greatly appreciate y'alls insight on how to best go about choosing between these schools: KCU-COM (Joplin) Pros P/F Curriculum No mandatory...

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...

ATSU-KCOM Pros Old school with large alumni network Good facilities with anatomy lab, simulation center, student gym, etc Rural (I personally like rural areas) Facilitates audition rotations Cons Missouri. It's a long ways away from me. Having to move for years 3-4 or travel longer...

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 all, I'm in a predicament about where to put all my deposit money into for a DO school -- if I end up getting an MD acceptance, I'll prob go with that, but for now I'm just trying to stick to one DO so I don't waste all my money on holding both acceptances. KCU-Joplin: Pros: one of the...

Kcu Joplin Pros: higher step 1/complex passrate Associated hospital Only medical school in area Joplin is a small town which has amenities (I like the city) Cons: far from home (Atlanta) Pcom ga Pros: Close to home Cons Lower step 1/complex pass rate No associated hospital Not a big fan of...

Hello! I have been having a ridiculously hard time choosing between these three schools. I am an international student, hence will be paying out-of-state for all three schools. KCU-Joplin is the cheapest (and I got a $5000 scholarship for the first year), but the location is kinda meh and I'm...

Hey all! I've been accepted at KCU-Joplin, and have an upcoming interview at NSU. For reference, I live in Florida, and staying close to home is a big deal for me, as I'm married and plan on starting a family while in med school (the family support will help with this). Based on that, it would...

I've been accepted to KCU-Joplin, but I live in Florida and got an II from CUSOM. CUSOM is closer to home (not by a lot, but still drive-able), so that's what's making me consider it. Everything I read online is telling me KCU is better than CUSOM. Is this correct? Any reasons I should consider...

Hey Everyone! I have recently been accepted to KCU-Joplin and BCOM. Both are great programs and I am having a hard time deciding between each. KCU-Joplin Details Located in the Midwest, which is close to family. Curriculum is the same from KC campus, which has shown excellent board...

hey guys so this is my first post ever so bare with me. I am super grateful that I have been accepted to 2 great schools but currently I am conflicted about what school to choose. I have already put my deposit down for KCU Joplin so I guess I also need advice on how to recend my acceptance there...

I'm struggling with this decision. I've been accepted to all three and having a hard time figuring which is best. Background info: I have a husband and 2 year old son. Husband will need a job, we have to find a daycare for our son, and a house to rent. Moving from a metropolitan area with access...

Hi everyone, As the first of my deadlines are approaching, I would just like to get some feedback on some schools. I got accepted to LUCOM, WVSOM, CUSOM, LMU-DCOM, KYCOM, MUCOM, AND RVUCOM. I still have an interview at KCU and PNWU-COM, but I don't think I can afford the plane tickets to fly...

Hey all, I'm stuck between Touro's Middletown campus and KCU's Joplin. I got a late acceptance to Joplin so now I have to submit a deposit and I've been back and forth between both: KCU Joplin Pros The attached name of KCU, professors have been training at the main campus The...
