Hello! I am getting ready to apply to the 2020 cycle! I was wondering if anyone knew what schools did 3 year OD programs. I know that PCO (Salus) has one. The program itself isn't popping up on OptomCas though....
 
When you apply to Salus on OptomCas, you can pick which program you want to apply to in their additional questions section. I think Salus is the only one that offers a 3 year program.
 
hi

this is the first time I heard 3 year program, could you please tell me what the difference between 3 yr and traditional (4 yr) program?
from Pre-request, OAT, GPA to get OD degree? and Board exam? are all the same?
thanks

Thank you! It says on the website to contact them if you are interested in the accelerated program. Since I am applying 2020 that specific program selection isn't available to me.

So the three program is referred to as the accelerated program and you complete the same exact amount of credits in 3 years vs doing the traditional 4. There's actually a great video that they posted on their website explaining what it entails if you want to just watch that, it covers everything you need to know! 3 year programs are pretty uncommon
