Prospective Students

Graduates of the Northeastern Ohio Universities College of Medicine (NEOUCOM) have earned their reputations as highly competent, compassionate health care professionals. Working in partnership with 17 associated hospitals and two departments of health throughout northeast Ohio, NEOUCOM provides a truly outstanding curriculum and a friendly, supportive environment.  

NEOUCOM offers several routes to admission for those seeking a doctor of medicine degree. Students may apply for B.S./M.D., direct entry or transfer admission. NEOUCOM’s combined B.S./M.D. program is one of the largest B.S./M.D. programs in the country. High school students admitted to the B.S./M.D. program receive a reserved seat in medical school while completing their undergraduate requirements at one of the partner universities that make up the NEOUCOM consortium:  The University of Akron, Kent State University and Youngstown State University. Undergraduate requirements can often be completed in  two years, allowing students to complete their medical degrees in as few as six years.

NEOUCOM also offers a direct entry route to medical school for students who have completed their premedical studies at another college or university. Typically, 20 percent of our first-year medical school students are admitted to the College of Medicine through direct entry admission. Transfer students from other medical schools are considered for admission on a space available basis.

NEOUCOM recently received approval from the Ohio Board of Regents to offer a doctor of pharmacy degree. NEOUCOM will work in partnership with The University of Akron, Kent State University, Youngstown State University and Cleveland State University to offer the doctor of pharmacy program. Preferential admissions agreements will allow many students to complete their pre-pharmacy studies at one of these universities and then apply to the four-year doctor of pharmacy program at NEOUCOM. A direct-entry route to admission also is anticipated. It is anticipated that the first class of doctor of pharmacy students will enter NEOUCOM in the fall of 2007.  To request additional information about the doctor of pharmacy program, please visit the Prospective Student Form.
