Is anyone here considering Touro-NY vs NYCOM? Can you please share your insights on which school and why?
Last year I was choosing between NYIT and Touro. I ended up going to NYIT because of their non mandatory lectures and because of them having rotation spots in NYC

If I ever get an interview and if I'm lucky enough to get accepted to NYCOM, I'll likely give up my spot at Touro for the same. I'm indifferent about the mandatory lectures at Touro, but its nice to have the option to miss without losing the points from the clicker quiz. You won't actually be in NYC though (at least for MS1/MS2), which could be a downside depending what you consider a pro for Touro.
I don't think we are supposed to. The woman I talked to said they will just be sending an email a week prior to your scheduled interview as a reminder.does anyone know if we are supposed to receive a confirmation email once we scheduled our interview?
Has anyone who interviewed heard anything back as yet?
i know it sucks waiting but silence is better than flat out rejection. have patience, send an update letter if you want.Hey guys,
IS applicant with 28 MCAT (11 VR, 10 BS, 7 PS) 3.5 GPA. I'm pretty sure my application was complete 9/30, but I haven't heard anything about a II yet. Starting to lose some hope 🙁
ive been complete since 8/18 with 30 MCAT and 3.6 GPA although im OOS, so youre not the only one

Do they give out flat-out rejections this early?
*heart sinks* That is good to keep in mind. Still hoping for an ii though. They're one of the few schools with a nutrition program.Yes, there is a preference. School is 70% in-state.
Just because its 70 in state doesn't mean that there is a preference. Its a private school. There might just be lots of people from NY applying and want to stay there.*heart sinks* That is good to keep in mind. Still hoping for an ii though. They're one of the few schools with a nutrition program.
Hardly anyone OOS has received invites so far though. The preference seems obviousJust because its 70 in state doesn't mean that there is a preference. Its a private school. There might just be lots of people from NY applying and want to stay there.
I saw many out of state students during my interview. Do not lose hope.
One of those out of state students gave me a ride home.

Instate and no offer either. They just started interviewers. Also sdn isn't representative of everyone.Hardly anyone OOS has received invites so far though. The preference seems obvious

Congrats!! Can you share your stats if you don't mind?? how do you know your complete date if they aren't giving out complete emails?II today, IS and complete 11/10.
Thanks! 28 MCAT/3.85 cumulative GPA/3.8 science GPACongrats!! Can you share your stats if you don't mind?? how do you know your complete date if they aren't giving out complete emails?
The complete date is an estimate based off of when I was complete at other schools. I had to send out a set of documents to be considered complete at a few schools (NYIT included). So when the other schools told me the documents had been received I figured that was around the time I was complete at NYIT as well.
How often does the admissions committee meet to review our applications?

I have my IV scheduled on 10 of December . Please share your experience if you have already interviewed there . Thnkz
I finished my app to this school a while ago im OOS but i havent heard anything (no "app complete" email or anything) anyone else run into this problem? I emailed their admissions and didnt hear anything either so im kinda nervous...
Same situation (me: OOS, complete forever ago, decent stats, no II). I emailed them, and they took a few days to reply. All I got, however, was the generic "your file is under review, you could be invited for interview at any point." I suppose all we can do is wait. Good luck to you though.

They don't email you a completion note. I would call them and ask if they've received everything.

Anyone who interviewed on November 19th or earlier receive a decision yet? I have deposits for other schools due in 10 days, and I'm not trying to shell out for multiple deposits.

Called admissions, they said that they are sending out the decision letters next week and they should be received by the 25th of Dec, if you interviewed November 19th or prior.
Decisions are communicated by physical mail.
Thanks for letting us know! I was hoping that decison letters came in before Dec 14th, so that I wouldn't have to drop $500 on my UNECOM deposit.Called admissions, they said that they are sending out the decision letters next week and they should be received by the 25th of Dec, if you interviewed November 19th or prior.
