Hi I looked it up for you. If you are looking for the schedule, you may find it at http://evanstransportation.com/rates..._airporter.php

And they do not require scheduling or reservation, you just hop on the bus corresponding to the time fitting to you. They drop/pick up at the Mariott.

Hope this helps

Hi, I noticed you got accepted to both western and touro, can you share why you chose touro over western?

I remember reading the threads from last year and I think he said it was just cuz he wanted to get out of Southern California or something like that.

let me know if I was right dnguyen! lol

man he has some ridiculously stats....

Yeah, I wanted to get out of Southern California and try living on my own for once. I really miss it down there but I'm happy with my choice

When you have the choice, it's really up to you. There's really no better school than the other. Check out the campus and see where you will be happy at. Gluck guys!!

And guys, GPA isn't everything! A successful pharmacy student is one who has great time management skills. You guys will soon see!

I am curious about that too! I have received that email over 2 weeks already. Still haven't heard anything. I think they are still working on tier 2.

Got my invitation letter today )

Hi guys,

To whom you travel, which airport is better? Is there any place cheaper than Marriot? By the way what were the questions on the interview day? Are we supposed to write an essay?

Thanks

How was the interview like?

Yeahh, how was the interview like?? I'm worried about the essay, will they give you an article to read about first before writing? Or are you expected to know all the details of current events in pharmacy?

Hi, I received that email on the 27th and got my interview letter on the 28th.

yoo2na! Did you schedule already? if so, do you know what are the available dates?

Hey. I tried calling in to schedule yesterday but no one picked up. I don't think they work on Sundays or on holidays, so I'll try calling them again on Tuesday. In the email, it says that interviews are given only on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Hope this helps.

For the Evans shuttle do we just pay by cash when we get on the shuttle? Or do we have to buy tickets first when we get to SFO airport?

Thanks yoo2na,
yes it should be on Wednesday/Thursday, but I was wondering to find out if it could around early December in case I can get an interview from Western University as well !)

If I could get the dates tomorrow, I'll let you know right awayy

Hey, I just called called them. She didn't give me a list of available dates though. She just told me if I wanted to do Nov16 or 17th, then I told her I couldn't make it those days, so she asked me which date I wanted specifically, and I told her I'd like to have it on the 30th, and she said it was available, so yeah. Hope this helps..

Thank you, I may schedule for the week after hopefully see you in the class though)
keep us posted how it goes!

Can someone who had an interview already share with us the questions they ask? I got invited today and was told that Touro has group interviews...thanks!!!

Did anyone else schedule for an interview on thurs 11/17?

For those interviewed on nov 2nd, how did ur interviews go?

I actually liked the group interview, I felt less nervous with other interviewers in the room than by myself lol

You can pay them once you get in the shuttle, make sure to tell them the Marriot in Vallejo, not the one in Napa..

Should we pay for the shuttle from Marriot to School or it's included in Hotel's payment!!???

it's not included in the hotel amount, you have to pay separately

i am tier 3 i believe and i just received an email from Chrisselle saying my application is now eligible for review by committee i hope i get news soon!

I believe if you stay at the Marriot then they provide free shuttle to school, at least in my case. Dont book the hotel with the school code since it is more expensive than the AAA code if you have one. I only tell them i need the shuttle when i check in the hotel.

Then Evans bus is separate from the hotel, although you can purchase the bus ticket at the hotel, it is 29$ each way. Good luck
