Sources

Every figure links to the official page it came from. Look for the icon. Verified Oct 22, 2026.

Some details aren't published by the school yet; they show as โ€œโ€”โ€ until they are.

Where official sources disagree

  • classSize / stats.admitted: Choose DO Explorer's page lists 141 first-year matriculants for 2024-2025 but only 97 "Total Medical School Enrollment" for the same year, which is internally inconsistent for a school founded in 2023 with multiple enrolled classes. Both figures are recorded; classSize uses the 141 first-year-matriculant figure per the curation rule, and the 97 total-enrollment figure is not used elsewhere.
  • timeline (application deadlines): The page's "Primary Application Deadline" (April 1, 2026) and "Supplemental Application Deadline" (April 11, 2026) both precede its own stated "Earliest Application Submission Date" (May 4, 2026) and "Earliest Supplemental Application Submission Date" (May 6, 2026) for the same cycle - an internal inconsistency on AACOM's page. OCOM uses rolling admissions; dates recorded as published rather than corrected.
