A quick and dirty breakdown:

Homestate: CO
3.62 GPA (science and cumulative) and 4x retake on my MCAT 24 (expired) 29, 29, 511. I got my MPH with high GPA.

Good EC and Clinical experiences. Around ~1000 and 500 hours respectively.

I am thinking Michigan State and Rocky Vista. Would like 3 more school suggestions if possible.

Thanks!

Don't apply to MSU. The OOS tuition is 90k...

You have stats for MD schools. Are you or have you applied to them first?

For DO schools, I suggest RVU, PCOM, KCU (KC or Joplin, doesn't matter), Touro-CA.

With all due respect to alteredscale, you have basically no chance at PCOM because of their regional preference and Touro Ca is a dump.

RVU KCU and DMU would be my choices for you

No offense taken. Honestly I had no clue PCOM had a strong regional presence but good to know 🙂

I have applied a couple years ago with a 29 MCAT and super late (September) submission for MD. This year, I was thinking a bulk of MD schools with a handful of DO schools. I was told that the 4x retake will come off as a risky applicant to many MD schools so I wanted to be safe and apply to some DO.

I literally started a couple days ago thinking of DO schools so I dont know all of the acronyms yet. Any chance you can tell me the states each school is in so I may google them?

OK I might be taking MSU off of my list. Similar to alteredscale, can you please tell me the states these schools are in so I may google them? Thanks!

This made me laugh. I'm from northern CA and when I got an interview at Touro-CA my first thought was "God I don't want to have to live in Vallejo."

KCU Kansas City University
DMU Des Moines University
If I were you, I'd email admissions at RVU if you live near Parker to see if you could get a tour.

Touro in Nevada.
PNWU
Western
Burrell

These are all private schools so tuition will be high. Since CO and OK share a border, maybe consider OK State?
