Now that you have chosen to pursue a career in medicine,we invite you to explore the opportunities at the College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific.

The College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific has developed the Northwest Track (NWT) in response to numerous calls and requests from Northwest facilities, physician groups, and students. COMP has set aside 30 seats in each class for students who permanently reside or possess a degree from a four-year college or university in the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and Alaska. By contract, these students will complete their first two years of basic sciences at COMP's campus in Pomona and then return to the Northwest for their required third- and fourth-year clinical clerkships. Find out more about COMP's Northwest Track. Dirk Foley, Executive Director for Educational Development, heads the NWT and can be reached at foleyd@westernu.edu.
