Dmu Rural medicine educational pathway

[nikkisorous]

Does anyone here that goes to dmu participate in this program or know information about it? It seems interesting , but after looking at the contract agreement i have questions. It says you have to complete 4th year rotations in rural iowa settings, so overall would that make you less marketable for competitive residencies? Is this a program you do straight out of dmu or after residency? It doesn't specify. Also i'm assuming it's a paid 4 year position, but then again they do cover your entire tuition so it doesn't hurt to check about that too!

Thanks guys

I talked briefly to admissions about this while I was on campus, and it really helps if you are from a rural town in Iowa and you want to go back there and set up shop. However, I'm sure they will entertain applications from all backgrounds.
