Hi. As the tittle says I was wondering if you knew of any Osteopathic schools that share a full university's facilities. Right now the only one I can think of is VCOM.
 
Thanks guys. Does anyone from a medical program with connections to a four year school have any insights? Does it make a difference in the end? Too busy to make much use of the school's facilities?
 
NSU
NYCOM
UMDNJ
Oklahoma State
MSUCOM

Not UMDNJ-SOM.

[edit] Well, I guess I don't really know what you mean by full university facilities. It could apply to UMDNJ, but could also not. What are you asking for, in specific?
 
I agree. With UMDNJ its kind of complicated. SOM is in Southern Jersey, while the other two campuses are central (1.15hrs from SOM) and northern (2hrs from SOM) parts of Jersey. So students typically dont use their facilities etc. In the case of VCOM with VT, both schools are close to one another which makes things a lot different. UMDNJ is a graduate school so no, it does not have an undergrad. I hope this kind of answers the question.
 
VCOM-Carolina is right across the street from Wofford and the students have full access to the facilities there (libraries, gym, dining hall, etc.) and I believe if they want they can get tickets to Wofford sporting events (the basketball team made the tournament a couple years back so could be fun)

this questions disturbs me....all schools have facilities you would most likely use: career services, gym, on campus or right next to campus housing available, library (some schools have bigger libraries than others), some sort of lounge/hang-out area, and group study areas....I would kind of prefer if you had asked which universities are state-funded or what you mean by "full university facilities" because if you go to MSUCOM macomb or detroit you are not at the undergrad campus and thus dont have access to the undergrad campus unless you drive to east lansing

like JSO said above some schools are close and have access to another schools or their schools NCAA events but i doubt youll have much time to go
 
Ohio U and Oklahoma state are both NCAA d1 schools that have their DO school right on campus 🙂

but who wants to watch ohio u lose to ohio state every yr? 😛 oklahoma state would be nice now that the big 12 looks like itll stay alive for a few more years...LECOM-Seton Hill would be nice for basketball...

Seton Hall is the semi respectable basketball school. seton hill has what seems to be a good D2 football team though and some pretty attractive undergrads roaming around.
 
The DO school, if I'm not mistaken, is in Tulsa whereas the undergrad is in Stillwater, OK which is a little over an hour away.

yup. anyways though osucom is under the osu umbrella.

haha good catch...didnt even notice that 1!...anyways you shouldnt judge a school based on its NCAA sports...im def more worried about the rotation schedules and hospitals then if i can go to a NCAA football game one saturday a yr (cuz im too busy the rest)

With SOM, do students have the opportunity to do some of their rotations at the other UMDNJ hospitals? Like in Newark or Jersey City?
