Also required

No physician letter required; a letter from a physician (osteopathic physician preferred) is optional in addition to the required letters. ยท No stated minimum shadowing hours; both virtual and in-person shadowing accepted. ยท Letter of recommendation from a premedical advisory committee, OR letters from two professors who taught the applicant, required; accepted via AACOMAS, Interfolio, paper, or email. ยท Non-U.S. citizens without a permanent resident ('green card') status at time of application cannot be considered for admission; DACA applicants also not considered. ยท Interview process is in-person only and mandatory for further consideration: a blinded two-on-one faculty interview, a group interview, and a one-on-one interview. ยท Tahlequah (Cherokee Nation, OSU-COM-CN) is an Additional Location, not a separate branch campus with its own AACOMAS designation; same admissions process, deadlines, and tuition as the main Tulsa campus.

How selection works

Preference is given to applicants from Oklahoma; combined (Tulsa + Cherokee Nation) matriculants mostly in-state (99 in-state vs. 42 out-of-state).

Where official sources disagree

  • classSize / pools (in-state/out-of-state split): Choose DO Explorer's page lists "First-Year Matriculants 141" as the Tulsa-specific figure (with Cherokee Nation separately marked "TBA"), but describes the 99 in-state / 42 out-of-state matriculant split as a "combined" Tulsa + Cherokee Nation figure - even though 99 + 42 = 141, the same total labeled Tulsa-only elsewhere on the page. Not reconciled by guessing; both labels are recorded as published.
