SAAO is the Student American Academy of Osteopathy (the “OMM club”). During SAAO meetings, members are taught new techniques or variations of practices learned in class, as well as honing their skills with classmates and educators. Every year in the spring, SAAO members have the opportunity to go to AAO Convocation, which is a week-long national conference centered around OMM that gives students a chance to meet D.O.s who are experts in their fields and learn how they incorporate OMM into their practices.

SAAO hosts review sessions for members in regards to the OPP course which will include practice written tests, practical prompts, and open house sessions for questions and practice. There are great prizes that members can win at each of these events. Hope to see you all there!

Dues are $60
