About to start school here, I am very bullish on the school and its future at least for a DO. The building is awesome. The culture at admitted students day was tight knit and had a sense of community feeling.

The anatomy lab is amazing!!

Also there is steam gaining about ICOM becoming a public med school, which would mean cheaper tuition, eventually a teaching hospital and likely residencies, so if you are trying to buy stock in a school while it’s low…….
Here are some articles on the purchase. The state seems very invested in making ICOM a state school.

Lastly they placed decently this most recent match: 2 Urology matches (one at the Mayo clinic in AZ) 1 ENT match, 6 Anesthesiology matches, 3 DR matches, 1 vascular surgery match at UC Davis, 1 dermatology, 2 Orthopedic surgery matches (one at the Cleveland Clinic Akron General, and another at Colorado).


Meridian/Boise has a lot going for it as well. The area is growing, lots todo outdoors and nice restaurants. I had preconceived notions about the school, but they have and are taking lots of steps to improve. Very little/no competition for in state hospital sites Throw an app in and give them a shot. I’m happy I did.


If anyone has questions feel free to message me.
 
Recent ICOM graduate here. Happy to answer any questions future applicants have about my experience here through all 4 years. Starting residency soon though so might not be as quick to respond. @DoneDone3451 summarized everything going on at ICOM perfectly!
 
The turnaround has been incredibly fast here:

Primary Submitted: 5/30
Interview Invite: 6/4
Interview Scheduled: 6/23

@DoneDone3451 thanks for the info! This is my top choice DO school so I'm excited for the interview.
