"The students are very supportive of each other and sincerely interested in the well-being of their colleagues and community. There is a very positive learning environment; everyone is very enthusiastic about osteopathic medicine yet not stuck on themselves. The OMM lab and the anatomy lab are fabulous. Great rural setting!" Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"I forgot my suit hanging on the closet door when I packed up stuff!

On a more serious note, I wish I would have known when I would be hearing a response from the admissions committee. Also, I wish I had known that their total deposit is $1500 to hold your place in the class after getting an acceptance." Report Response
