Submitted the health forms just now. Gotta file taxes and then I'll do the FAFSA right away. Is there even financial aid for professional school?

Do you mean scholarships?

II just now. Super surprised. Pretty set on PCOM GA but I live in Brooklyn so I think I'll go. Can't believe they have so many interview dates left.

I think they interview in small groups. You'd be insane not to go.

Yea my day was 9 or 10 people compared to some other schools where there was 30+. They also started interviewing much later than other schools. Got my secondary in mid September and had already been on 3 interviews.

Yea, my interview group consisted of 10 or 11 people. Other interviews I've attended the count was around 20.

What about background check and drug screening? There was nothing about that in the email after the deposit.

My interview at SOMA there had to have been 50+ people. It's insane because their class size is 100 or something. It felt really weird.

Yes! In fact they did a ton of things. MMI, Small group project, One on one interview, speed dating interviews. It was insane and the actually interviewing process was like 3 hours long.

I just copied the text in a blank email & then bolded the option for accept that I picked, and deleted the options I didn't pick.

 

[Gemi512]

I saved it as a pdf, then circled the option of choice.

 

[varens1]

Do they send you other emails after they receive the 2000 dollars or that's pretty much it ?

I paid my deposit back in mid-December and haven't heard anything from them since then. I assume once more of the class is set they will start moving things forward.

 

[tyz5011]

There was a moving forward email after you pay the 2000 dollars and send in/email that sheet. I'd call them if you did not receive the moving forward email that had the health forms and other things about preparing for matriculation

Either check your junk mail or give them a call because you should have received that moving forward email by now.

Yeah, I called them today and left a voicemail. I'll give them another try tomorrow. It didn't go to my junk so I probably just didn't make the list

Yep! Sent in my form to accept. The payment is confirmed and has been removed from my account. I've setup my portal and have started to get the emails reminders about the summer courses offered to matriculated students. I think I just missed the moving forward email but think I am listed as a matriculating student.

That's great then. The moving forward email just has some important informations as to what needs to be done to make the matriculation process smooth. I'm sure they'll send it to u if you get in touch with them. Plus you've already done the first thing on the list which is setting up your touro email.

It's a Google email so you actually login through gmail. If you go on the portal there should be a message box that says to access email click a link and it sends you through to gmail

I googled "touro email" the first link takes you to My Touro Portal

https://touroone.touro.edu/sso/login?service=https://mytouro.touro.edu/paf/authorize

login in using your touro email address name... ex username from [email protected] and I think the initial password was MMDD##FFLL maybe
once you are in there there is an email tab on the left that links you to gmail.

I ended up finding this but I can't even access the portal. I called the help center and apparently they are working on it.

Any responses yet for people who interviewed after 2/17? I know that benzyne interviewed on 2/17 and was accepted but has anyone else heard anything?

I haven't heard anything, and I interviewed on 2/3. Tomorrow is Friday though so hopefully we'll hear something!

 

[varens1]

It turns out I wasn't able to access mytouro because they have the wrong SSN on file. Now it's working at last.

Accepted here today! Interviewed in 1/13. Will be declining in favor of another program, but I loved my interview here and am sure I would have been happy at Touro-Harlem. Hope my spot goes to somebody here who needs it!

I scanned and emailed. My scanner let me put all like 15 pages in one giant document so it's easier for everyone!

Hey everyone!

Fellow Touro 2020 here! Super excited! Anyone figure out the portal and email access? I have made the account and after logging into MyTouro Portal, the only links are Getting Started and FAQs...am I missing something here? Any help would be awesome

 

[trillclinton]

does anyone know when the white coat ceremony for the 2020 class would be?

 

[varens1]

In 2018... Touro does the white coat ceremony before students get into clinical rotations. But they do give the white coat at the beginning of first year I believe cuz you need it for other stuff during the first two years.
