澳门六合开奖 Applicant Guidelines
The Still Scholars Early Acceptance Program is designed to provide admission opportunities to outstanding students of 澳门六合开奖 who have as their goal to become Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine. The program is conducted under joint collaboration of 澳门六合开奖 and A.T. Still University鈥檚 (ATSU) Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine (ATSU鈥怟COM).
Under this program, 澳门六合开奖 students apply to ATSU-颅KCOM at the end of their sophomore year, or during their fourth semester as a residential 澳门六合开奖 student, and must have been a residential 澳门六合开奖 student for a minimum of three semesters. Students will be awarded reserved conditional admissions to ATSU-颅鈥怟COM at the beginning of their junior year at 澳门六合开奖, pending the completion of additional requirements for full admission to medical school. Students must commit to completing their junior and senior year at 澳门六合开奖 earning a BA/BS degree prior to matriculating to ATSU-颅KCOM.
The advantage for those students accepted at the end of their sophomore year is to have a reserved seat in ATSU-颅KCOM鈥檚 entering class upon graduation from 澳门六合开奖 and the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) is not required. After acceptance to the program, the student can spend the last two years at 澳门六合开奖 meeting graduation major/minor requirements, taking electives, fulfilling internship and/or service opportunities and otherwise broadening his/her life experiences. Scholars will be awarded a small academic scholarship for A.T. Still University-颅Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine.
Program Requirements
澳门六合开奖 students may enroll in any major, provided the ATSU-颅KCOM entry requirements are met by the designated year of enrollment. 澳门六合开奖 students will apply for admissions to this program after completing three semesters (approximately 45 credit hours) as a 澳门六合开奖 student. Applications will be available through the Pre鈥怘ealth advisor at 澳门六合开奖 in January of the student鈥檚 sophomore year and will be due to the advisor on April 1 (or a date determined reasonable by 澳门六合开奖). Applications of students selected for nomination by 澳门六合开奖 must be submitted by WC鈥檚 faculty designee to ATSU-颅KCOM by June 1. Applicants will interview during September of their junior year. Selected students will be awarded reserved, conditional admissions to ATSU鈥怟COM at the beginning of the junior year.
