Touro NY

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Congrats on your acceptance Rose Mary. How long did they send you an interview invite after you submitted your supplementals? Thanks!
 
Does anybody know about the interview process? About how long does it take? Trying to plan out my trip and flight details. Thanks in advance.
 
I'm curious about that as well, Steven1105. I just confirmed my interview for the 21st of January. What hotel did you guys stay at, and did it offer any discounts?

I got there at about 11am and was there till 2 or 3pm. They shuffle you around to meet a few different people and it's a bit disorganized. If you like the school you should stay as long as possible getting oriented.

When I got this message from Touro:

If your status is:

It's holiday now, so just be patient and give them time. Also, what it stated on your post meaning you need to send them your grades by the end of spring semester. The sooner, the better. That doesnt mean you can't score an interview invite either.

Just received an interview invite. For those of you who had your interview, would you mind sharing your experience? How was the interview process? I am especially nervous for this one because Touro is one of my top choices. Congrats to all those who have been accepted so far! 🙂

Hi, anybody has interview on Jan 28th ?
 
I interviewed last year for the Class of 2017 and was accepted, but went elsewhere.

They asked simple questions.

1. Why Pharmacy?
2. Where do you see the practice of pharmacy in the next 5 years?
3. Share an experience where you have had a conflict with a colleague and how you approached it.

Be your self do not act all sophisticated or nothing like that. A tip is trying to find something that you might have in common with the interviewer.

Feel free to ask any questions.

I want to add something. There is a question that asks you to describe yourself using 3 words (1 word each time). I and my friends during the interview they felt that this question was quite challenging. Other than that, just stay clam and be yourself
 
Got accepted this morning! New York is my dream place to live! :happy:
