Hi. Is it normal to only receive a payment receipt after submitting the Secondary application to TUNCOM? I’ve submitted mine 3 weeks ago but have only received payment receipt. I did not get an email acknowledging receipt of my secondary application. Is this normal for TUNCOM?
I have also not received a secondary. I meet all the minimum requirements, too. I'm assuming they send them out in waves, or they could be super backed up.

when did you submit your primary? I received mine after around 3 days. If u submitted recently, ya prolly they r pretty backed up.

For those interviewing tomorrow, did you recieve a link in your email anywhere to join the meeting? Or an interview day guide? All I've received so far was just an email to confirm my appointment. I tried calling their office but they haven't been answering. Thanks in advance!

I texted them and they said an email with the link will be sent out.
 
is casper required for this year? I can select it as a school to distribute scores on Acuity, but don't see anything about it in its admissions requirements.
 
Did anyone that got interviews not submit the technical standards form? I submitted my secondary at the beginning of august but just now saw that it was a required upload in my portal

I did submit, cuz it showed required in the portal. you can find the form in their website.
 
Is the Osteopathic Medicine Technical Standards required to upload? I submitted my secondary 7/10 OOS but haven't heard anything back. Wondering if it has something to do with that form.

Nope! You are welcome to do it early but you do not have to upload it until after you interview.
 
if anyone who interviewed this past week feels comfortable sharing any insights that would be much appreciated 🙂 I have mine coming up on the 17th. I don't need specifics just wondering what the overall ~vibe~ was like.
I thought it was a chill interview for the most part! Just be yourself and don't overthink the questions 🙂

don’t know if I’m reading into this but I just got an email to submit the technical standards form. does anyone know if this means that I could potentially be getting an II soon?
From my understanding, your application isn't complete until you submit the form. I didn't submit it until a week ago and that's when I finally received a "app complete" notification.

Interesting, I initially emailed admissions when I submitted my secondary a while back and was told I could fill out the form after if I got an interview and that it was not necessary at the time. Hopefully, that email is an indicator of good news or maybe they just decided to go ahead and send it to everyone anyway lol
 
I have an interview for sep 17 only received invite in the email covering the whole day. Does anyone know where to find the break down of the day? For example, at another school I interviewed at the had website showed faculty presentations, student panel, 1 on 1 interview, and breaks. I have looked and can't seem to find it. If anyone knows it would be appreciated!

They will send it a couple days before.
 
I received an II but when I went to sign up for a date, the interview scheduler says "no dates are available." Anyone else have this problem? Should I contact admissions or just wait to see if they open up new dates?
 
OOS Waitlisted... first admissions decision this cycle so feeling a little crushed 🙁
Just the last year they blew through their entire wait list and were inviting 2025 applicants to interview for their 2024 class. I know it sucks to be waitlisted, but if it is anything like last year you are probably likely to get the A eventually

Thank you for the reassurance!

Thank you so much to offering to answer our questions!

How much time per week are you in mandatory labs and lectures?

How approachable are faculty?

What is the culture like? Are classmates decently collaborative?

What service opportunities are you participating inor plan to participate in?

On a scale of 1 to 10 how burned out do the third and fourth years seem lol?

Anything you wish you had done or known before starting school?
 
Had to decline my A due to the hard 2 week nonrefundable $2000 deposit and waiting to hear back from other schools. Otherwise seemed like a very solid program.
 
I also withdrew my A. I actually really liked the school but that steep of a deposit with such a short turnaround is not a decision I wanted to make.
 
Do they only offer virtual interviews this year? A friend of mine interviewed in person the previous cycle and I would love to do the same. Thank you in advance!
 
Withdrew my A here for a program closer home. Hoping it goes to one of you!! Best of luck in the cycle everyone🙂
