About TouroCOM
Underrepresented Communities
Part of TouroCOM’s mission is to help more underrepresented minority students become doctors, as well as having our graduates serve in underrepresented areas. Staying true to our mission, in Fall 2019 we welcomed the Class of 2023, and with them, 64 minority students (at both our Harlem and Middletown campuses), our largest number to date.
