i dont think u need to anything since u have one acceptance! just pay the 2nd deposit when they ask u to!
 
How does one decline their acceptance after paying the deposit? I can't find anything on the portal
 
Withdrew my A today. To those waiting, I would expect movement after May 14 as that is when the second tuition deposit is due. Best of luck everyone!
I think there's one more round of interviews so not sure if we'll hear then? Urgh literally waiting for WL movement, but thank you for the update and I hope you're going to a program that you love!

Oh, sorry, didn't know they were still conducting interviews! and thanks! wish you the best of luck!
 
Does anyone know if we need to complete a drug screening with the background check the email was very vague. And does Touro pay for it or do we have to ?
 
for our class, they didn't make one til May and the classes usually use discord. the accepted fb group will be made around March/April
You guys are welcome to create a group chat right now since you guys might be weighing your options. Feel free to send me the invite if you want a current student in there to answer questions. Also my DM's are also open in case anyone has any questions! Happy holidays <3
is there a link for that Discord group?
 
Ahh so happy for you all! WL movement has officially begun!!
 
Theoretically, if I were accepted off the waitlist, how long would I have to make a decision, and would Touro give their financial aid package offer before so I could decide?
they dont give scholarships. theres like one DEI scholarship for ~2000 but that's about it

The financial aid is just loans for the amount of cost of attendance and you decide how much to take.
 
Anyone have a link to the discord group for accepted students? I wanted to connect with others that were looking for roommates and I'm still waiting for the FB group to accept me lol

there hasn't been a discord yet. Last year, it was made around July like once everyone finalized that they were going to Touro for sure. There is an accepted group me. I will message you that!
 
Someone shoot me an invite to the accepted students chat too plz
 
did you get any information regarding setting up a TUConnect account? I heard that was a resource we can use to connect with others to find housing, but I still haven't heard updates regarding this.
I reached out and they said basically all of the departments are focused on commencement week and we should receive more info/start to see updates after thursday of this week.
 
Did anyone else receive an update email about their waitlist status this morning?
I did. Was the portion about the MSMHS program included in the email you received? I know a few other schools include information about their bridge/masters programs to students relatively low on the waitlist, so I’m hoping this was just sent to everybody. I already completed the MSMHS program so I’m really hoping that’s the case lol

They also mentioned the MSMHS program in my email as well. I think it was sent to everyone.
 
Given the 24hr turnaround time to accept, movement should start happening alot quicker from this point forward!
