ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ City University has partnered with the ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ State University Center for Health Sciences to guarantee interviews for select ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ pre-med students. The program, utilized by eight other ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ universities, provides a clear path to interviews with the OSU College of Osteopathic Medicine.
To qualify for the program, students must meet academic criteria, including a minimum 3.5 GPA and 502 MCAT score. Prospective students who have met the full criteria will be guaranteed an invitation to interview with the OSU-COM admissions committee.
βΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ students consistently receive a high rate of acceptance into medical schools and other competitive graduate programs,β said Helen Gaudin, associate dean of ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½βs Petree College of Arts & Sciences. βGuaranteed interview programs like this one offer students tremendous peace of mind because hardworking students know they can count on being granted a coveted interview spot if they meet the academic standards.β
OSU-COM established this program to encourage promising pre-med students to pursue careers in ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½. By alleviating the stress of having to secure an interview, the initiative reduces obstacles for students to further their medical education.
βWe are proud to partner with ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ City University to offer the Guaranteed Interview Program to eligible pre-med students,β said JuLee Wells, director of recruitment for the College of Osteopathic Medicine. βΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ is the first private institution to collaborate with OSU-COM to offer this unique pathway to their students.β
In an effort to retain exceptional students with demonstrated knowledge in their fields, ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ also provides a guaranteed interview program for undergraduate students pursuing advanced degrees in physical therapy, clinical psychology, and physician assistant studies. Both the in-house program and partnerships such as the schoolβs agreement with OSU-COM aid students in their pursuit of higher education.
