Does Meharry care about in-state or only URM?

Basically this.
Not URM, probably ORM considering I'm Asian however I am from the Nashville area and would like to stay near home.
Should I still apply here?

Just URM status. I would consider applying elsewhere unless you have a very compelling reason or can articulate very clearly that you plan on benefitting URM/disadvantaged populations after dental school.

I would say just go ahead and apply you never know, especially if you can convince them you want to stay in Nashville. I have a friend who is Asian as well and got accepted there as an OOS
