LUCOM Partners Program
The Liberty University College of Osteopathic Medicine has developed a number of pathways, including the LUMED 3+1 accelerated pathway, to facilitate the admission of qualified and mission-aligned applicants. The Partners Program was developed after a retrospective review of academic performance at LUCOM revealed that graduates from our partner schools have a record of strong academic performance.
