Touro University (CA) or MCPHS (Worcester) ?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Hi all,

I got accepted into both schools and I am not sure which one to attend.

Do you have any suggestions? MCPHS has been around for a lot longer than Touro University, but has only received 3 alumni awards, whereas Touro has received 7 already, even though it only graduated 3 classes. Touro is also smaller, but the diversity is not great. It seems like it has mostly asian students. MCPHS has a 3 year accelerated program, however I am interested in building up more pharmacy experience during pharmacy school by volunteering or working as a pharmacy technician.

Any suggestions on my decision would be great. Thanks!


looks like you

-do not really care if the program is 3 or 4 years

-like diversity

-think both schools are almost equal in term of ranking

I would say go where you pay the least amount of money and get out the fastest. Or go with your guts. GL 🙂
 
Where are you intending to work after graduation? In CA? Or is anywhere fine? That might help with your decision.
