What are the facilities and clinics like (old/new, well maintained, etc.)?

The facilities are honestly on par with most other DO schools, theres some complaints about lack of study space but I have never honestly felt that. Theres 6-7 breakout rooms and a full service library on campus to study at.

How do students from this program do after graduation - are they adequately prepared for practice?

Mostly everyone places into residency(98-100% each year). They do fine in residency and after.

What are rotations like?

Plenty of sites in Mississippi, Louisiana and Tenneseee.

How do students from this program do in the Match?

On par with most other DO schools, in fact better than some of the new schools. William Carey has 2 major hospitals its affiliated with in Hattiesburg and UMMC in Jackson frequently takes carey grads. This past year we were one of the few schools who had a neurosurgery match. We have also had derm, ortho, ENT and urology in the past years. Everything else from Gen Surg to DR/IR/PMR to IM/EM is pretty common.
