Hi everyone, I'm currently trying to decide between Hofstra and Einstein and would really appreciate your feedback. 1.For a little bit of context, Tuition is covered at both schools via scholarships, so costs would be relatively the same. 2.I currently live on Long Island and will not be...

Hi guys, I've been accepted to USciences, MCPHS in Worcester, and Hofstra University for their MOT programs. I'm trying to decide which one to go to. Does anyone on here have any experiences with any of these schools they'd like to share? I am comparing my options and looking at pass rates...

Hi guys, I am planning on scheduling my virtual interview with Hofstra MOT program. What questions should I expect and what is the interview experience like? They said that it will be in the virtual format. Thank you!

Hi everyone! I was waitlisted at Hofstra after an interview & my stats are good. I was wondering if anyone knows of a student who got off the waitlist in the past and what are my chances getting off the waitlist? I know it's still early.

Interested in a competitive specialty, and I’ve heard going to the most prestigious school will help. Haven’t received the financial aid package from Dartmouth yet, but it probably won’t be close to Hofstra. Both schools are P/F. Also have never lived in a rural setting before, but I don’t...

On ERAS I saw four separate Hofstra Northwell OB/GYN residency programs listed (Southside Hospital, Lenox Hill, Manhasset, and Staten Island).

Welp, with both financial aid packages in, everything is on the table and I'm down to this decision....feeling both very, very lucky and deeply conflicted! Aid packages left me with essentially the same cost (give or take ~1K), so it's really down to the specifics of the schools. Pitt Pros: +...

Ten years ago, the AAMC looked with alarm at the increasing and aging U.S. population and the aging physician workforce, and called for an increase in medical school enrollment of 30% by 2015. At least partially in response to that call to action, approximately seven years ago Hofstra...

This is NOT the post bac program I see everyone talking about; this is an undergrad prep program for med school. It is 3 years long, every summer. It's only open to NY/NJ residents. I'm wondering, did anyone on here apply to it? I've seen no mention of this program anywhere on SDN

Hey everyone! I was lucky enough to already be accepted at my two top choices, UVM and Hofstra North Shore LIJ, and I am having some trouble deciding which one is the right fit for me. They seem to offer quite different styles of learning, and I was hoping to have some input while I am forming...
