DO Application Timeline

[stickgirl390]

I've heard that the DO application cycle runs a little later than the MD cycle. When is the earliest DO schools start sending out interviews?

Last cycle people were attending interviews in August. I imagine if you get everything in real early you would get invited in July.

Thanks. I'm planning on submitting by the end of June, so that should be perfect!

MOST schools start their interview cycle in October, and they will go all the way until March next year.

A FEW schools start in August (I can think of LECOM and ARCOM).

The individuals I know that received the August interviews had completed primaries by June 15th (this is when D.O. schools can view the AACOMAS) and had completed secondaries by the first week of July.

Good luck.

LECOM sent it's first interview invitations out in late July last year.

Long story short, the longer you wait, the more applications there are in line ahead of yours to be looked at by admissions committees. Apply as early as possible, so long as your application is ready.
