Did anyone else get a blank email from admissions? I submitted my secondary app on 9/29, got the under review e-mail on 9/30 and recently became complete with my DO letter.

Submitted 9/30, Complete/Received/Under review email 10/9. 4-6 weeks for decision.
For me, 6 weeks is the week before Thanksgiving. It's either going to be a happy or sad Thanksgiving, but food-filled nonetheless.

Also, if we could all just fill this out...
Just hit reply and add your info.

See you tomorrow then!

By the way, just a heads up, all of our speculation about the deposit being refundable is no longer true. It says on TUN's website that as of July 2015 all deposits are completely non-refundable. Hope you all made a lot of money in Vegas 😉
 
Best of luck to everyone interviewing at TUN today! Be confident, professional, calm, polite, and smile 🙂
TUN DO19, OMS-I
 
Anyone still having a hard time getting through to schedule an interview? I have been calling all morning with no luck and their voicemailbox is full.

Very laid back. Mostly sitting in one room having presentations. Also a short tour and a 20 min open file interview with two faculty members. They know your file pretty damn well and will ask you specific questions about yourself and experiences as well as some standard questions. Everyone was extremely friendly and I got the sense there was a tight knit kind of community there. I really liked the school and would love to go there. They said a decision will come in 3 weeks.
 
Submitted 9/18. Under review email 9/30 saying supplemental received and it should be 4-6 weeks for a decision. Yesterday 10/13, I received a SECOND under review email saying that I should anticipate 6-8 weeks for review. Anyone else experience this?
My uninformed opinion tells me this is similar to a hold or a re-review at a later date.
Or it might not be you at all and the adcoms are on vacation or something, thus pushing app review further back.
 
because this

One of the emails I got had the subject "Hello From Touro College" and the other was "TUN: Your Application is in Review"

Anyone else get the same?

What do you think it means?

My gut is that they got delayed with all of the holidays and breaks that they had and they are extending their cushion to get back to us. If it was a true "hold" or "waitlist" they would have explicitly said it. When did you submit your letters/secondary?

That seems reasonable. I was complete 9/30

So was I and they were out of the office for the past like two weeks for the majority of the time for holidays...

Did you get two complete emails. I think I make a great candidate seeing the people getting interviews!! Hopefully we get an invite.

I wouldn't sweat it. We have absolutely no clue why they sent us two emails so not worth thinking it to be the most negative reason. No news is good news, my friend.
