Dr. Kiran C. Patel College of Osteopathic Medicine (KPCOM)—Osteopathic Medicine Program 2023–2024 138 eligibility verification is conducted by the KPCOM Office of Student Affairs, in conjunction with the Office of Clinical Education. 2. Medical Student Performance Evaluation (MSPE) The Medical Student Performance Evaluation (MSPE) is a formal letter of evaluation issued by the dean and serves as an evaluation for the application process for graduate medical education training programs. Specifically, the MSPE provides a succinct chronology of a student’s entry and progress through medical school, which includes the preclinical and clinical rotation records, preceptor comments, involvement in special activities, compliance with behavioral policies such as dress code and attendance, and the student’s personal qualities. The MSPE is generally available for students’ input by September of the M4 year. Students will be permitted to review their MSPE electronically, but are strictly prohibited from sending it on their own to any individual or residency program. 3. Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) The Association of American Medical Colleges developed the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) to transmit residency applications, letters of recommendation, the MSPE, transcripts, and other supporting credentials from applicants and medical schools to residency program directors using a web-based application. Students are responsible for uploading their CVs, COMLEX/USMLE transcripts, and personal statements into ERAS. The KPCOM Office of Student Affairs is responsible for uploading medical school transcript, photos, and the MSPE. The KPCOM Office of Student Affairs will provide students with the manuals and instructions for accessing the ERAS web-based application through the CAN-DO advising system. G. Academic Deficiencies 1. Course Examination Failures OMS1 or OMS2 students are notified of examination failures through the electronic posting of grades.
