I thought I would start a thread for Touro-MI applicants who have been waitlisted so that we can more easily access one another and maybe get a better 'guesstimate' on the movement of the waitlist (and provide encouragement and support for one another!). By listing our interview dates, WL status, tier level and acceptance date, perhaps we can find a trend to the waitlist movement.
By looking at the general waitlist forum and an LOI for Touro forum- I have came up with 11 Touro-MI waitlisted applicants so far and would be interested to see if there are more of us on here.
This is what I have so far, please add yourself, correct my information, or remove yourself from the list if you would rather not be on it. Thanks.

misspiti you were more than likely in tier 1. In Dr. H's updated letter he stated that people would be pulled from tier 1 then tier 2 of the high wL. just so you know...🙂

oh thanks!! I see you're on tier 1 too...so your number will be comin up soon I'm sure! good luck 🙂
 
I hope so but it is getting towards the end of June and I'm starting to get really nervous!!
 
the next two days make me really nervous. I think there will be another batch of offers coming out at the end of this week since it has been two weeks since the last one.

best of luck to all of you.👍

Hey there, did you here that from anyone in the admissions office? I check my email waaaaay too often, because I think the offers are made through email. That would be so cool to get good news this week. Let's keep our fingers crossed!
 
I hope we can all hang out with each other before school starts in August. Good luck guys.
 
I have not been in contact with Dr. Haight for two / three weeks now. I just made the assumptions about the waitlist -> offer process. Anyhow, I hope today is the day. My yahoo horoscope says so!

Daily Extended Forecast for June 21, 2007
Some extremely good news will send your mood skyrocketing! A green light is shining bright, letting you know that things are looking good and you are clear for takeoff! But before you head for the wild blue yonder, make sure you are wearing your safety belt! Now is not the time to rush ahead and forget to cover all the important details. You are capable of soaring to great heights, but first you have to make sure your feet stay planted firmly on the ground.

haha nice horoscope...hope it comes true! good luck guys 🙂
and yes they do let you know by email sometime in the morning hours so hopefully you'll hear something positive soon!

does most of the waitlist movement take place in June? or is there a decent chance of getting off a waitlist in July too?

haha- i like your horoscoped based optimism... do you check those everyday or just this week since we are hoping for a second round of acceptances??
I got an email fwd a few days ago sayin I would get the good news I had been waiting to hear at 11am the next day if I forwarded it to all my friends... I hate sending forwards but I couldnt resist on that one... I think they understood haha-
we cant help but be superstitious and hopeful!!

good luck guys!
 
you mean horoscope-based hysteria... who checked their email accounts more than 20 times today?

*raise my hand*😛
 
Keep83 I wish your feeling that they would send out another round of acceptances this week was true, but I remember hearing from either Dr. H or Lynn Huckle that they would convene and decide on offers as space became available... I didn't think it was an every two weeks type of thing. But I hope your right... we're getting very close to school starting!

my email sounds every time I get new mail... I dont think I will even have to work out this summer if this keeps up throughout the summer- cuz I run to my computer whenever I hear the sound... ahhh- so frustrating! 😕
 
Well, did anyone hear anything? I didn't....🙁

Does anyone have any idea how many people have gotten offers yet? I'm trying to figure out where I am in the line, but I'm not able to get any info on that. I hope July is more promising...

nope! still no offers, my superstitious side got the best of me that day... 5 weeks left😱... i'm trying my best to enjoy my first responsibility-free summer since high school... but this waiting is killing me.

did any of you receive news from Touro?

The most I've gotten was that letter a couple weeks ago giving an update... although since I bug the office so much it wasn't anything I didn't know.😉
If we could only know how many offers have been made to waitlisted people I think that would ease my mind a bit. I just want to know if this is a year where they are seeing significant movement, or barely any at all...
Are youguys in anywhere else?

I emailed Dr. H about that yesterday and he said they had had only one withdraw in the last three weeks. Not much movement at all

Only one person has changed their mind?? oh..... not good.
Hopefully that will change in the coming weeks.

Did he tell you how many offers they've made to waitlisted applicants?

No he didn't. It seems that a lot of waitlists are moving slowly this year. Hopefully they do pick up soon.
 
Anyone heard anything yet?
I am working on my medical schools applications, but REALLY don't want to apply and spend the money again if I am going to get accepted... which I had thought was def. going to happen, but as time passes I am having trouble being optimistic...
Anyone else in this situation? ...Or has anyone else submitted any applications for 2008 yet?
Good Luck this week guys! :luck:

I hear ya on having trouble being optimistic. I was thinking I would for sure have heard good news by now...
I retook the MCAT on May 31st, so I'm going to wait to resubmit until I find out how I did.
Do you know how many people get offered early accept for the following year? I feel like we have to have a good chance at that!

I am not sure how many they early accept- they say almost all the high waitlist and sometimes medium... but since there hasn't been much movement so far this year, it makes me wonder if perhaps they won't be able to early accept as many of us as they may have in the past.
Good Luck on your MCAT retake? Do you think you improved? My husband has been on me to retake it, and maybe I will have to go ahead and do that come August... yuck! 🙄
Anyway- so I don't end on a negative note... GOOD LUCK! 😀
 
Does anyone know when the next round of acceptances will be happening? I only knew of the first 2... when was/is the third?

Dr. H told me in an email the other day that he would be sending out another update letter to everyone probably next week. You might want to ask him about rounds of acceptances though... I thought they just occured as space opened....
 
I emailed Dr. H recently and he told me that four spots just opened up. They are going to have a meeting on Wed to see who they're going to pull off the waitlist. He also said that they are still in the first tier.
 
In the meantime this waiting process is going on for you guys you guys can see some of your future classmates bio on themselves on the school email archive http://ca.mail.tu.edu/mailman/listinfo/tucacom2011. I only wish you guys the best of luck and hope to see some of you this year.

Oh my gosh that is so exciting. Just when I was starting to get depressed about the waitlist movement, a surge of hope comes! What did you ask him exactly? When I ask details about the waitlist he never gives specific answers...Did he say how many offers to the first tier have been made so far?
Thanks for the insight!
 
Has anyone heard from Touro today? They were supposed to meet today for those four spots....
 
I did receive a call today and I have been pulled from the waitlist! I will be attending TUCOM.

Hey sghazi what do you mean by 'making calls/sending letters out this week and next'...

Dr. H told me about a week ago that he'd be sending out an update letter.

And I know the committee extended offers to four people from the waitlist yesterday... are there more open seats already?
Thanks!
 
The letters they're sending out are just update letters I think.. as for the phone calls I believe those are for the people who are being accepted off the waitlist. Anyway, I asked if they have been accepting from the 2nd tier on the high waitlist and was told, 'maybe yes and maybe no.' Go figure.

Hey Binx.. how long did they give you to make your decision? I'm just wondering what the turn-around time is at this point..
 
dr. haight send out an update, i got it today, he'll be sending out another one in august from what the letter says. gluck all 🙂
 
Has anyone heard if there have been more seats that have opened since those four last week?
 
Hi guys I just got accepted but I'm going to give up my seat b/c of family reasons. Good luck

Hey Guys..I just did some research on other forums to see if I could find out the status of some of the ppl on here.. Found out that jp104, and misspiti had other acceptances (to which they accepted), thus would probably be withdrawing from TUCOM-MI list.

Hi! I have indeed withdrawn from the Touro-MI waitlist since being accepted to NYCOM. I was WL High - 2nd tier I believe. I hope that you guys all receive some good news soon! Take care and good luck.

Hey all- I emailed Dr.H to see when the committee would next meet to decide acceptances, and he said they meet on an as needed basis... and there hasn't been any withdrawals in the last 2 weeks.......
 
Well I found out the hard way today that the Urban Legend about the girl who missed her acceptance phone call and got passed over really happens.
I got a call today with an offer to join the class of 2011 from Touro-MI. I am a House Director at a Sorority and there was a fire at our house Sunday night and I was dealing with insurance men and fire inspectors when my phone rang and the caller ID said 'Restricted'. Not answering because I didn't want to be rude to the man I was on the phone with, I missed the call. 25 Minutes had passed by the time I checked my messages and had called Touro back, and the spot was already filled. 🙁

I am now crossing my fingers that someone else withdraws today and that they will call me in the next 4 hours (by 5pm Pacific time) since Orientation starts tomoorow. I just thought I would share this with you guys, people who know how frustrating and disappointing this is. :scared:

Anyone else heard any news from Touro?
