About Rhode Island: Pop. ~1.1M; Providence is the dominant city. Warren Alpert Medical School at Brown University is the state's only medical school, with a strong focus on public and community health.

In-state preference: Brown's Alpert Medical School is a private school and admits nationally without in-state preference, though the combined BA/MD program (Brown University Program in Liberal Medical Education — PLME) has strong New England ties.

MD vs DO in Rhode Island. DO graduates are fully licensed physicians in the US and have competed in the same NRMP residency match as MD graduates since the 2020 merger.
