AACOMAS Applicant/Matriculant Profile ― 2014 Entering Class Following are summary tables of osteopathic medical school applicants and matriculants from the 2014 entering class. AACOMAS received 155,349 individual school applications from 17,944 applicants for 6,192 COCA-approved seats in Fall 2014. These numbers include all applicants to the 34 colleges of osteopathic medicine and branch campuses that participated in AACOMAS. There were 2.90 applicants for each COCA-approved seat in the first-year class. The mean number of individual school applications per applicant was 8.66. The Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine (COMs) matriculated a total of 6,562 applicants to the 2014 entering class 1. Of these 6,562 matriculants, 6,467 (99 percent) submitted an application through AACOMAS. Of the 6,467 matriculants who submitted an application through AACOMAS two applied in 2015, one applied in 2010, and 164 applied in 20132. A total of 95 matriculants did not submit an AACOMAS application. The data points included in this report are as follows. Due to rounding, not all percents will total to 100 in the tables below. ● Gender – Full data are available for all but 205 applicants and 66 matriculants. ● Age – Data are classified into six age groups and calculated as of July 1, 2014. Also provided are the minimum, maximum, mean and median applicant ages. Because AACOMAS does not require applicants to provide date of birth, the number of applicants with missing data is indicated in these tables. ● Military experience – The type of military discharge is a distinct question in the AACOMAS application. ● Race/Ethnicity – The race and ethnicity questions on the AACOMAS application ask applicants to mark all that apply. For this report, race/ethnicity is examined using both: (1) single category response, where a single race/ethnicity is counted for each applicant, applicants listing more than one race are reported as “Multiple Races,” and any applicant who marks Hispanic/Latino is counted as being of Hispanic/Latino ethnicity, effectively superseding any other race selection(s) s/he may have made; and (2) multiple category response, where each applicant is counted for every race/ethnicity the applicant reported, which may result in the applicant being counted multiple times. For the tables and figures in this report, the Multiple Races and Unknown categories do not describe option choices in the AACOMAS application, but are instead respondent behavior (e.g., multiple or missing responses). United States citizens and permanent residents are included in race and ethnicity totals, while temporary residents and non-U.S. citizens are counted in the Foreign category. This follows U.S. Census and IPEDS collection and reporting methodology. ● Baccalaureate major – All reported majors leading to a baccalaureate degree were organized into five groups: Life Sciences, Social Sciences (including Psychology and Education), Physical Sciences (including Mathematics and Engineering), Arts & Humanities and Other. The number of majors may be greater than the number of applicants/matriculants, as students can complete more than one baccalaureate degree or may complete multiple majors. ● GPA – AACOMAS may calculate up to three sets of GPAs for each applicant: undergraduate only, undergraduate and post-baccalaureate, and all coursework. AACOM has provided means and standard deviations for both the science and non-science GPAs, as well as the overall GPA. Data are provided only for cells in which there are at least five applicants/matriculants. The means in the total column are calculated as means of total, not total of means. ● MCAT scores – AACOMAS received MCAT data from 16,957 applicants and 6,302 matriculants in 2014. For cases in which more than one set of scores for a particular applicant was received, AACOM included the set with the highest total score. The mean, standard deviation, and median for each section of the MCAT, as well as the total MCAT score, are all included in this report. AACOM reports data for which there are at least five applicants in an individual cell. The means in the total column are calculated as means of total, not total of means. ● Parents' college education – This is not a required question on the application. ● Family member is a DO or MD – Full data are available for all applicants/matriculants. ● Feeder colleges – The top 20 undergraduate feeder colleges providing the largest number of applicants.

AACOMAS Applicant/Matriculant Profile ― 2014 Entering Class ● State and country of permanent residence – In 2014, AACOMAS received 203 applications from non-U.S. permanent residents, 175 of whom were Canadian residents. A total of 64 non-U.S. permanent residents matriculated to a college of osteopathic medicine, 56 of whom were Canadian residents. A map displaying all U.S. applicants and matriculants is also included in this report. 1: The University of North Texas Health Sciences Center at Fort Worth/Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine and NYIT-COM's émigré program applicants are not included in this analysis because the data are not part of the AACOMAS database. UNTHSC/TCOM receives its applications through the Texas Medical and Dental School Application Service. 2: The two 2015 applicants are not included in this report. Note: Top 20 Feeder Institutions and Baccalaureate Degree Majors tables revised on 3/12/15.
