I'm in need of some advice... I was accepted to ACOM in December and have already placed my deposit. I just received an interview at TUNCOM and am trying to figure out whether or not to attend. I know that Touro is more established, but how does it compare to ACOM? Thoughts? Thanks!
 
Bellagio buffet >>> everything. I'm probably over analyzing, but if I just received an II then they must still have seats? I don't want to get my hopes up just to be put on the wait list.

I'm deciding to not attend ACOM because of mandatory attendance, location, and slightly lower than average first pass percentages.
 
Might as well attend the interview, you never know what will happen. TUNCOM>> ACOM in my eyes as well. Mostly because of the mandatory attendance.
 
Assuming you are financially able to make the trip:

This is an excuse to have a mini vacation in Las Vegas for school purposes. Need I say more?

Not necessarily-- I remember going to an interview a few years ago (different school) and found out when I got there that we were interviewing for waitlist spots.

If you have the money and time to interview and can see yourself going to TUNCOM over ACOM, might as well go to the interview! On the other hand, if you'd prefer ACOM anyway, or if going means you won't be able to pay your rent or whatever, stick with your ACOM acceptance and be happy.
