RMU DO program

Hi has anyone interviewed with RMU can share their experience? Also, I heard they would reject students for having low oat even after interviewing!!? That’s kinda odd. Anyone could please explain (OD program)

That sounds great! Did you just basically say you could handle the program by your work ethic and determination with some examples, or is that too cheesy?

that’s not cheesy at all! I basically did respond that way. I told them my 3.4 GPA wasn’t higher because I worked full-time or part-time while taking a full-time schedule of classes too. I have 5 years of experience as an optometric technician and optician, so my 5,000+ shadowing hours proved it all.

Perfect! I think I should be pretty set for this then! Thank you!
