Consider adding both PCOMs. Due to their magnificent incompetence (look it up) I can't recommend Touro-NY
 
I threw an app at Touro-NY early in the cycle before I read about what happened and now I'm kind of kicking myself.

I think you'll have a solid application cycle OP

I would send primaries everywhere, pick and chose your secondaries and interview invites later.
 
I wouldn't send primaries everywhere, that costs a ton of money. Only apply to schools that you would actually see yourself going to... There's no sense in going somewhere that would make you miserable! Goro's list looks good.

Do some volunteering if you haven't! They love that. And it feels good to give back to the community.

The reason I said apply everywhere is his stats are not so hyped up that he is a perfect candidate.
He has very good stats but with the current competitiveness there is no guarantee at any school . I believe the total was 1600 for all 37'ish schools. The schools will send him secondaries and he can pick and chose and try his luck over the next 2 months. If he doesnt get what he wants he can always pull up the secondaries for schools he was less interested in come november.
 
I have the money to submit primaries to a lot of schools. So I planned on doing what Deez said, if that helps...

I would definitely recommend RVU, they have a campus in Colorado and Utah (new)
 
I would reconsider applying to CCOM, their match list isn't as great as some other schools on your list, and the tuition is extremely high.
