Editor's notes

The supplemental asks you to pick a campus, and the committee can move you to the other one. Only list Long Island alone if you'd truly turn down Jonesboro. If you'd go to either, say so; a campus you can explain beats a campus you merely prefer.
Once you submit the supplemental, NYITCOM won't take updates or new materials. Don't submit it until your letters are in AACOMAS and your list of experiences is final. A new grade or a late award has nowhere to go.
Deadlines run to March 2027, but interviews and acceptances are rolling from late summer. A March application is competing for whatever seats remain. Treat the deadline as a closing date, not a target.
NYITCOM's mission names inner-city and rural care, and it runs free community clinics and the only Emigre Physicians Program in the country. The practice-community question is the place to show that fit with something you've actually done.
