Des Moines University acceptance rate
PreMD does not publish an acceptance rate for individual schools. The free national sources publish applications and matriculants, not the number of offers a school made, so an acceptance rate cannot be calculated from them without inventing the missing number.
What can be published from those figures is the ratio: Des Moines University received 4,479 applications for 227 seats in the entering class, or about 19.7 applications per seat.
Des Moines University rankings
PreMD does not publish a ranking of medical schools and does not republish anyone else's. Ranking tables are licensed products, and a number reproduced here without its methodology and its year is worse than no number at all.
What this page publishes instead is the comparison above: where the school's own reported figures sit among the DO programs that report the same figure, with the count of reporting programs stated so the comparison can be judged.
