For those who have scheduled interviews:
Have you started arranging your travel and hotel plans? I'm going to have to fly there and will probably stay at the suggested hotel, however, I'm unsure which airport I should arrive at (is San Francisco International better than Oakland Airport?). Is the shuttle service better than the a taxi? I'm trying to budget as much as I can so any helpful suggestions will be much appreciated.

I'd suggest Oakland airport, so you will be on the other side of the bridge. (closer to the school). But, I personally picked SFO because it has more flights to pick from.
The hotel that they suggested has a discounted rate at 134.99 USD for Touro University. I would not know about shuttle service/taxi since I'm getting a rental car.
Hope this helps.
I'm doing SFO, their hotel and shuttle. Something tells me that a 1 h 15 min taxi ride around SF will cost > $100. I'm not even sure most drivers will know exactly where Vallejo is. The discounted hotel rate is also very low compared to others I've checked. I read a joke somewhere, goes something like this:
People is San Francisco are very friendly. They will gladly lend you the $27.95 for your medium latte...
I'm doing the same too! Maybe i'll see you on the shuttle!
i think it was just the invite, with the card that says the file is complete. by the way guys, did anyone get an e-mail confirmation of the interview? i'm still waiting...
I have been invited to attend an interview. I just got my letter today. I am so happy! And I will call them tomorrow to schedule the time, then I will post more here!
does anyone know when is the last day they are going to mail out interview invites for the october interview? i feel more and more discouraged every day...
It is for the whole application cycle, not just for October interview. The letter states,"You may schedule your interview on any available date during the cycle..." So, don't get discouraged... It is a waiting game! And Good Luck!

When did u submit ur supplemental application? how long did they take to invite u for an interview?
It was quick. I sent my supplemental application this Monday (9/10), and they received it on 9/11 and sent me the invitation on the same day.

damnit i sent mine in on 9/10 as well...haven't heard anything yet
Dont' worry, pharm buddy lives in sacramento. it's closer to the campus. It will take another day to reach you in OC. You should get your invite today or this weekend. good luck.
Hey Guys,
I thought I'd let you know if you already didn't that Touro is a Jewish-sponsored school, hence, they follow the Jewish holidays and stuff. At the moment, they are closed as this week was Rosh Hashannah (sp?) so they will re-open on Monday, the 17th of Sept. I'm waiting for my interview letter too but I'm sure that I won't find out anything until Monday, at the earliest.

hey guys! i just recieved the reciept tht my application is complete...did any1 recieve something like tht b4 they were invited for an interview?
Hey ApplicantPharmD,
When did u submit your supplemental? I submitted mine on Aug. 29th, and still haven't received even notice that my application is complete. 🙁 I've tried talking to ppl at the school but I'm scared that if I get annoying, they might take it out on my application. Do you think they could move my application further down in the stack if they are annoyed with me???

I got a receipt from Touro indicating that my application is complete too, but no interview invitation. I have a question for those of you who have received interview invitation, when you did your supplemental application, did you use additional paper for those question or just you the available box that was given. I'm scare you guys, because some got invitation right after you sent in your supp app. I only got a notification that they have received my supp app 😕🙁
same here pinkberry. 🙁 i submitted mine a while ago and still did not receive any interview invite. All i got was the notification indicating that my application is complete. Best of luck to you, future interviewees, and those who are still waiting!
I have the same question here for those who have received the interview invites. Did you use an additional paper for the questions on the supplemental? Also did you get a notification of a completed application along with the interview invite, or did they come seperately?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I did attach several pieces of paper to the supplemental application. And I received my invitation and the completion notification on the same day.
join the club..my application was received and completed on 9/12...no invitation (yet?)
same here. i think they have a tier system, and the date of the next round of interviews might not be chosen yet. good luck guys!
I just answer my questions using the available boxes that were given (since they hinted they wanted short and precise answers). But my GPAs are not considered decent though only 3.1. Oh well, i hope what panbabylon said is true. Good luck to all of you going to the interviews, as for those in the same boat like me, wish for the best.

hey all...
so i found out that touro mailed me a postcard confirming my file being complete on sept. 4th.. so if i still haven't heard about an interview can i assume that i'm not gonna b considered??? this is just stressful... i'm gonna live with the motto:
NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS.
good luck to all... 🙂

I didn't get invited to do the supplemental last year but my friend did and she got her interview invite like 1 month after submitting her supplemental. So, don't worry! I just submitted mine 2 days ago. I'll let u know if I get anything....Good luck!🙂
Congrats! 🙂 Can u share ur stats with us..im waiting to hear back from thm too...Thanks
Just got my invite for an interview, and confirmation today also. I submitted my app last week, on 9/11.
edit: it seems like those that got invites got the confirmation postcard together. so i think it's safe to assume that if you JUST got a confirmation postcard, you either won't get an invite, or will (hopefully) get one later on.
