Quick facts

• Location: Dothan, Alabama.
• Application: AACOMAS; the current page says no supplemental application or fee is required.
• Review: rolling review and rolling admissions.

Admission requirements

ACOM requires AACOMAS and the materials listed on its current application page. A physician letter, preferably from a DO, is required; applicants without a premedical committee letter submit two science letters. The page directs applicants to the current prerequisite and eligibility instructions, while the public page reviewed does not provide a complete numeric GPA/MCAT cutoff. Confirm the current requirements before applying (ACOM How to Apply).

Important dates

The current ACOM page shows recurring dates: AACOMAS opens May 4, displayed submission begins June 1, interviews begin in July, and the first seat-deposit deadline is December 14. The page does not attach a year to the schedule. Treat these as general process guidance and recheck the current AACOMAS/ACOM cycle before using a date for Fall 2027 (ACOM How to Apply).

How selection works

ACOM reviews AACOMAS submissions and required letters through a rolling process. Its mission emphasizes preparing physicians for Alabama and surrounding rural or underserved communities. The public pages do not publish a detailed weighting formula, minimum GPA/MCAT screen, or acceptance prediction (ACOM prospective students).

Interview details

Confirmed

The current admissions materials describe an interview stage within the rolling process, but the public pages reviewed do not specify the current delivery format or interviewer structure (ACOM How to Apply).

Not published

Station count, duration, scoring, interviewer assignment, and a current Fall 2027 question list are not published.

Who this program may suit

ACOM’s published mission may suit applicants who can connect their experiences to community service, rural or underserved care, communication, and a reason for studying in Alabama. These themes are preparation cues from the school’s public materials, not a prediction of admission (ACOM prospective students).

Practice and next step

Original Videoath practice: Record a timed response to the linked general fairness prompt, review how clearly the answer explains a decision and its effects on others, choose one weakness, adjust the response, record it again, and compare both attempts before choosing the next practice target.
