I just thought the DO forum could use one of these posts where you state where you applied, and where you were accepted, rejected, and/or waitlisted. I haven't applied to osteopathic school yet, but I'm interested to see where those before me applied and had success.

Thanks
 
Applied LECOM, Accepted LECOM
 
Wow! 1 for 1. Anyone else care to share their experiences?
 
I haven't applied yet, but this is a good idea. I was wondering if people can also post their stats like gpa and mcat scores.
 
Applied at MSUCOM, CCOM, LECOM, Des Moines, and Touro
Accepted CCOM, LECOM, Des Moines
Waitlisted MSUCOM
BIG FAT REJECTION FROM TOURO
 
Applied to LECOM, PCOM, and UMDNJSOM.
Accepted at LECOM and PCOM, rejected from Umdnjsom.
 
This is so cool! Keep the good posts coming. For the most part, the application process looks favorable. I mean...everyone that posted has been accepted to at least one school. That's a positive sign. Anyone out there NOT get accepted to any DO schools? Just wondering. Anyways...keep on postin your rap sheet'! I'd like to make this post as big, if not bigger, than the one in the MD forum! Thanks again for your participation.

stats sound good...If anyone doesnt mind posting some stats im sure it will be greatly appreciated by many of us in the application process...at least it will give us a chance to see what we should aim for

Thanks!! 😀 🙂 😎
 
I understand that some folks would like to see stats. While this is fine (I wouldn't mind knowing who had what stats myself), I'd like to keep the focus of this post on acceptances/rejections. Anyone else care to share where they applied and what the outcomes were?

Thanks

Proxiless,
As for NYCOM one of my classmates got hhis rejection letter from NYCOM in the fall of our 2nd year of medical school. I am not sure what took them so long.
 
everyone keeps saying OUCOM. I assume you mean OSU-COM? To an Oklahoman, this is an important distinction! OU is an allopathic school, while OSU is Osteopathic!

Isn't OUCOM Ohio University?
 
OUCOM is Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Athens, Ohio

Just a clarification.
I will be interviewing July 27 for beginning class of 2002.
 
Wow....That's early!!! Congrats!!!
 
oh, thank you--i wasn't familiar with that one! 🙄
 
akerst... you mentioned you have an interview date already, did you already receive secondaries? I submitted my primary on June 1st and haven't received my data sheet and confirmation that everything was processed. Let me know if any of you have received word from AACOMAS regarding the primary. Thanks and congrats!
 
BOW WOW, that's kinda early?
 
I talked to the people at AACOMAS the other day and they said that the primary application confirmation application profiles would be sent out by the end of July if you applied in early June.
 
Anyone else mind sharing your application list and where you were accepted/rejected/waitlisted?
