The best place to look is "current residents." If a program consistently takes DOs, they're likely DO friendly. For example, Yale and CCF are top radiology programs that are very DO friendly, whereas places in California or NYC/Boston less so.
As far as AOA, ACGME, maybe you could find an advisor to help you decide on that one and any additional steps you'd need to take go get an ACGME spot.

Haha, I'm a DO student as well and it makes me cringe.
Why does it make you cringe?
Seriously, get over yourselves. How else should hey describe himself if he want's advice particular to DOs applying.
I really don't know. I think it's just personal preference. It's kinda like saying "doctor of osteopathy" to the public where the vast majority have no idea what that is. I just prefer "D.O. student." Although, I guess it's different on SDN since it's pretty common knowledge.
