About College of Osteopathic Medicine (COM)

As a student in the Health Professions Division of Nova Southeastern University, you can anticipate a remarkable experience. You will train, study, interact, and share facilities, faculty, and resources with other health professions students. This interdisciplinary approach distinguishes the Health Professions Division as unique, and will better prepare you to master your discipline with a sensitivity and understanding of the entire health care system. We think this is an opportunity unmatched in health professions education.

The Health Professions Division, with a student body of more than 2000, is home to Nova Southeastern University College of Osteopathic Medicine, the first one in the southeastern U.S., and it grants the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) degree.
