What do you like most?

The professors are welcoming and supportive of your success. Granted that there are students who feel otherwise but again, any school could be like that. The campus is beautiful and despite being in a not-so-good neighborhood our security does an AMAZING job at keeping all the students safe. By word of mouth, our school also does minimal amount of OMM hours that are required of osteopathic schools which helps with board studying.

What do you like least?

Some really loved professors have left.

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

Some old and others mostly new. The school is expanding an area currently where students will be able to have some R&R. They are also going to remodel some of the older buildings.

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

I feel like we are well prepared to practice but we'll see when july hits

What are rotations like?

Affiliated with different hospitals around the nation which is nice if you plan on being closer to home. But 4th year is a disaster as majority of the planning is on you compared to our allopathic counter parts and this is true among majority of DO schools. We had to prepare 10 months of 4th year on our own, school will try to help but theres not enough people in the department to service all 400ish of us from both campuses.
