MCAT and GPA figures are labeled median or mean when the school's own published class profile confirms them, and “unconfirmed” when it has not yet been checked — the school's page cites the source. In-state preference tags are NextGen MedPrep's rating, not school policy, unless marked “published policy”.

Residency

Residents vs out-of-state applicants in Oregon

WesternU Heatherington COM, the one DO program in Oregon in our catalog, is not rated as strongly or moderately favoring residents. It has no admissions figures we have confirmed on the school's own pages yet, so the table shows the in-state rating and verification status only. Its profile has more detail.

The in-state preference column is NextGen MedPrep's rating from each school's matriculation pattern and admissions guidance, not a school policy, except where a row says “published policy”. A dash means the school has not published that figure in a form we could confirm. Sources for every confirmed figure are linked on the program's profile.
