Admission requirements

RVUCOM requires AACOMAS, the supplemental application, a bachelor’s degree before matriculation, MCAT results within the published time window, three letters, and prerequisite coursework. The page states a 3.0 GPA expectation and no minimum MCAT score. Prerequisites include biology, general and organic chemistry, physics, English, and biochemistry; no grade below C is accepted in the listed work. One application includes campus preference, so keep Parker and Southern Utah scope explicit.

Important dates

The cited RVUCOM page includes a June 20, 2026 supplemental deadline for the current cited cycle, not a complete Fall 2027 calendar. Do not present that date as 2027. Recheck AACOMAS, supplemental, MCAT, campus preference, interview, deposit, and matriculation milestones in the live instructions.

How selection works

RVUCOM describes rolling, holistic review of academics, experiences, attributes, letters, and mission fit. Applications are screened after AACOMAS and supplemental completion, and selected applicants receive an interview invitation. The public source does not publish a complete weighting formula.

Who this program may suit

RVUCOM may fit applicants who can explain their osteopathic goals, connect experiences to service and teamwork, and make an informed campus preference between Parker and Southern Utah. Campus choice is a scope decision, not an admissions prediction.

Practice and next step

Original Videoath practice. Use the linked general ethical-reasoning prompt to practise a focused two-person interview response. Record a timed answer, review clarity, empathy, and trade-off reasoning, revise one weakness, record again, and compare both attempts. This is general practice, not an RVUCOM question.
