2021-2022 Arkansas College of Osteopathic Medicine (ARCOM)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
During orientation, do we get tb test and drug test onsite and is there health insurance waiver if we have personal coverage?
Unfortunately the school will not be providing health insurance so it is our responsibility to find coverage. As far as I know, I believe having health insurance is required (I had to submit proof of coverage).

For those of you accepted off the WL recently, what time of day did they call you? TIA!
 
Husband was accepted of the waitlist just now!! We are over the moon! Keep up hope my friends!! Feel free to DM me if you have any questions. His journey is quite the story & is a true testament to never giving up hope.

Hey guys! I was recently accepted to ARCOM and Im honestly super thankful and super blessed. If there are any current students please hmu, I have a lot of questions about the curriculum, the program, medical school in general, etc!

For those of you are still waiting, don't give up hope! I almost gave up, but trust me, every single one of you guys deserve to be a doctor. I'm praying for more waitlist movement so more of you guys can hear back soon and I'm wishing all of you the best of luck!

Has anyone who is on the housing waitlist been called yet for a spot? I’m wondering how likely it is that we would get housing at this point?

Just received a call from ARCOM about getting off the waitlist! I forgot to remove my name but as soon as I have a work break I will call and hopefully it goes to one of you guys! Hang in there! I interviewed I think in October or November I can't remember

In their email they said there is no number and it doesn't matter they're going back through apps/notes and selecting people specifically not just on a list.

Arkansas does have expanded Medicaid though. So as a student with $0 income, you are eligible to apply once you are living here.

OMS1 Here.
Med school is tough. Extremely tough. There's no way around it.
But the people at ARCOM are so dedicated. And students are extremely supportive. This dedication makes the inevitable suffering that much more bearable. I don't think many other DO schools has such an environment. Also, don't pick schools based purely on location. Location won't matter. You'll be studying 15+ hours a day anyways. We push though every day knowing that everyone - our CEO, Dean, Professors, and everyone here - EVERYONE is doing absolutely the best they can
Hi! I wanted to message you about how your experience has been with the school but I can't message you
