Admission requirements
CUSOM requires prerequisite coursework with a C or higher; C- is not accepted. Selected applicants receive a secondary with a fee and two letters: one MD/DO letter (DO encouraged) and one pre-health committee, advisor, or doctoral-faculty letter. The page says competitive applicants often have MCAT scores at or above the 50th percentile, without stating a fixed cutoff (https://medicine.campbell.edu/admissions/osteopathic-medicine-admissions/).
Important dates
The current page lists recurring dates: AACOMAS opens in May; primary applications through March 1; secondary deadline March 15 unless otherwise noted. Applicant Days are by invitation. These are not labelled Fall 2027 dates; recheck the live cycle (https://medicine.campbell.edu/admissions/osteopathic-medicine-admissions/).
How selection works
CUSOM reviews complete files holistically for academic preparation, whole-person qualities, mission fit, commitment to osteopathic medicine, and interest in rural or underserved populations. Applicant Day decisions may be accept, deny, or waitlist on a rolling basis; no scoring formula is published (https://medicine.campbell.edu/admissions/osteopathic-medicine-admissions/).
Interview details
Confirmed
Selected applicants attend a virtual Applicant Day with interactive dialogue sessions in place of a traditional formal one-on-one interview (https://medicine.campbell.edu/admissions/osteopathic-medicine-admissions/).
Not published
Station count, duration, scoring, interviewer assignment, and a current question list are not published.
Who this program may suit
CUSOM may suit applicants who can show academic readiness, whole-person reflection, communication, and interest in rural or underserved populations. These are preparation themes, not a prediction (https://medicine.campbell.edu/admissions/osteopathic-medicine-admissions/).
Practice and next step
First practice: Record a timed response to the linked general fairness prompt, review clarity, empathy, and your trade-off, adjust one weakness, record again, and compare both attempts before choosing the next practice target.
