Each year twenty (20) admission slots at Sidney Kimmel Medical College and ten (10) admission slots at PCOM are reserved for\r\n\r\nfirst year applicants from Delaware, which has increased the odds of acceptance for students from the First State.\r\n\r\nEligible applicants must be legal residents of the State of Delaware and meet the premedical academic requirements of the preferred\r\n\r\nmedical college; Sidney Kimmel Medical College or PCOM. Bachelor&#8217;s degrees from any accredited college or university in the United States\r\n\r\nare accepted.\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<table class=\"table table-condensed table-hover\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr
