Editor's notes

Know what you're buying. OCOM holds pre-accreditation, not full accreditation, with a target of 2028, and it has no graduates or board results yet. That doesn't rule it out, but ask about clinical rotation sites and board prep at your interview, and check the scholarship fine print, because outside awards that require an accredited school don't apply here.
The class grew from 144 in 2025 to 195 in 2026, and the primary deadline isn't until April 1, 2027. Don't read that as a reason to wait. OCOM reviews on a rolling basis, makes interview offers from September and tells applicants to apply early.
The interview has a group component as well as a one-on-one, and interviewers have read your whole application. Practice working a problem out loud with strangers, and know your own file well enough to be asked about any line of it.
The mission names Central Florida by name, and 59% of the newest class is in-state. If you're from elsewhere, give the committee a concrete reason you'd train, and possibly stay, along the I-4 corridor.
