鶹ԭ establishes Early Acceptance Program with Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine

Oct 3, 2024

鶹ԭ has partnered with the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine (LECOM) to establish an Early Acceptance Program for students pursuing professional degrees in osteopathic medicine, dentistry or podiatry after their undergraduate studies have been completed.

The program is comprised of two phases: Phase I is the time spent enrolled in the Early Acceptance Program at 鶹ԭ, completing a bachelor’s degree with at least 60 credit hours of full-time study. Phase II is the time spent at LECOM and its associated clinical training sites. The three professional programs open to Manchester students are LECOM’s Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, Doctor of Dental Medicine, and Doctor of Podiatric Medicine.

LECOM will interview students prior to their enrollment at Manchester or within the first two years of study there. LECOM agrees to admit up to five qualified 鶹ԭ students to the LECOM Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine program per intended matriculation year, up to five to the Doctor of Dental Medicine program, and up to two for the Doctor of Podiatric Medicine program.

LECOM, with campuses in Pennsylvania, Florida and New York, is the nation’s largest medical college and provides student-centered pathways to prepare the next generation of health care professionals. Manchester is one of just three higher education institutions in Indiana affiliated with LECOM’s Early Acceptance Program.
