Texas OOS stats

Does anyone know the percentage of out of state students applying to Texas med schools who are eventually accepted to Texas schools? Sorry, I don't have a MSAR, so I was wondering if there was a consensus. Stats like the number of OOS who applied and the number of OOS accepted would be fine too.

I was looking to see if there was an overall number but stats for each school would be cool.

<10% is OOS matriculation for all the public Texas schools. Its a little of an uphill battle

I thought the stats were a little higher because although not many are accepted, not many apply OOS? 😕 Is that from the MSAR?

Texas law mandates that at most 10% of a medical school class can be composed of out of staters. So that means like it says, AT MOST 10% will be from out of state.

I dunno about how many oos apply. Let me check TMDSAS

edit: 23% of applicants are from out of state. Last year only 7% of total texas matriculation are OOS

So to find the overall odds of getting in based on applying out of state you would just multiply that divide 7/23, and get 30% overall chance of being accepted based on being out of state. That's not too bad! Thanks for the info.

uhh try that again. only about 10% of out of state applicants who applied got in. they made up 7% of the total students in texas medical school first year classes.

Where are you getting the 10%?

See 923 OOS apply. 96 make it in. Which means 10% of the OOS applicants get in. that 923 makes up 23% of the TOTAL Texas applicants, but only 7% of the matriculants

It's a Texas mandate.

It's less than 10% OOS applied and got in for UTSW, san antonio, and houston at least (looking at US news data).

Those three at least interview more than 10%, but multiplying that by % of accepted interviewees gives you about 5-7% total chance for SA and Houston, and just under 10% for UTSW (assuming you have the scores for that one 😉 )

To the OP, I can't comment on the others since I didn't bother to look them up because I'm not applying to them, but the odds are terrible. If you'd like exact figures, I'd recommend buying the MSAR and/or US News data. They pay for themselves with what you learn.

I wasn't saying your posts were wrong at all, just adding some more data into the mix that I knew of that showed that at certain schools the standard 10% assumption is even a little too cheery.

ok no probs 🙂

I gave the 7% of total matriculation numbers. thats the real bottom line for the data over the last two years
