Application Procedure: D.O. Program

New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine (NYITCOM) participates with other colleges of osteopathic medicine in the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine Application Service (AACOMAS). AACOMAS does not participate in the selection process, nor does it offer any recommendations to applicants concerning the selection of a college. NYITCOM subscribes to the Admissions Guidelines and Applicant Protocol of the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine, as published in the AACOM Osteopathic Medical College Information Book. To submit an application to NYITCOM, visit aacom.org. The web-based application allows you to submit your application to the College of Osteopathic Medicine through a secure web server.

Completed applications should be submitted along with the required fee, official transcripts, and MCAT scores. Selected applicants will be invited by NYITCOM for a personal interview. An applicant must be interviewed prior to consideration by the Admissions Committee for acceptance. A request for an interview should not be construed as an offer of acceptance.
