that's a very good question, in the past it probably mattered. In modern times its largely irrelevant, they are even working on merging the accreditation and licensing.


I would say it is still relevant. I doubt that someone admitted to both LSU-NO med school and VCOM Monroe is going to choose Monroe over LSU, given the higher tuition and locale of Monroe.

Honestly, residency matters much more than med school in regards to physician training.

I mean LSU med schools are of the more relatively inexpensive med schools, in-state tuition wise. if you are OOS, tuition wise you might as well go anywhere or a private school.


The residency thing is basically my point. DOs get residencies alongside MDs all the time and they are working on merging the residencies/accreditation entirely.
