I have read around this forum that there are some relatively new MD schools. Does anyone know which schools these are?

I interviewed at Hofstra North Shore LIJ. It was formed on 2008, and it was quite impressive and had a state of the art curriculum and lots of opportunities. You can look at the MSAR and check out the foundation dates of various medical schools.

UC Riverside is sort of new... they had a joint program with UCLA for a long time before becoming their own independent medical school.

Hofstra officially started recruiting students in 2010 and the 1st class started in 2011. They are now processing 4th year.

Hmm that is very interesting due to the amount of controversy among DO schools opening. I was under the impression that there were significantly more DO schools opening than MD schools. Though I suppose the argument is more on AOA residency spots rather than DO schools themselves. Very interesting!

You should also keep in mind that there were also a LOT less DO schools to start with.

Class sizes tend to be smaller for the MD programs, too. The charter classes range from 40 (Texas Tech and Hofstra) to 80 (UA). Projected class sizes range from 42 (VA Tech) to 125 (Netter and Oakland).
