Admissions Process — DPM

Application Process

1. Review the Requirements for Admission

Review the DPM program’s admission requirements before proceeding.

2. Submit Your Application Through AACPMAS

Submit your application through AACPMAS and designate that “DMU-CPMS” should receive your application. Applications are available in August for the class that begins the following August. The annual application deadline is June 30.

It’s to your advantage to apply as early in the cycle as possible due to rolling admissions.

3. Send Official Transcripts

Submit all official transcripts to AACPMAS. Please include all colleges and universities attended. Transcripts must be from a regionally accredited college or regionally accredited university within the United States.

4. Submit Test Scores

Submit your official MCAT, OAT or DAT scores to AACPMAS.

5. Provide Letters of Recommendation

Submit your letters of recommendation through AACPMAS. Two letters of recommendation are required, including the following:

• One letter from a DPM who can discuss your exposure to podiatric medicine
• One letter from a science professor, advisory committee or academic advisor.

Admissions Decisions

Your verified AACPMAS application will be reviewed to determine if an interview invitation will be extended.

An interview is required for admission. Candidates may choose to perform their interview experience on campus or virtually. Due to the rolling admissions schedule, those who apply early in the admissions cycle are more likely to be interviewed.
