Interviewed 12/21 and waitlisted today .

How often is it that students are accepted off the waitlist?

 

[sizillyd]

I'd love to know the numbers on post-interview admission, waitlist, and rejection. I have not seen many post-interview rejections. Also, it seems like this waitlist is DEEP. Maybe they are only picky pre-interview.

+1

 

[Dr Tony T. Chopper]

Congrats everyone who were accepted! I had a wonderful time interviewing here and met some nice folks in the panel and student committee who spoke to us. (Also, free pizza!)

 

[fuzzisthebest]

interviewed 12/21.
accepted 1/13.

 

[docycle]

Bleh sorry guys. I guess my post was hard to understand. By "final review" I meant the review that happens post-interview before acceptance/rejection. I was wondering about the time between interview and rejection. That's what I should have said.

But anyway I've got the answer for at least my personal case. We were told at the interview that the wait would be precisely 10 days.

Lol yeah the pizza was pretty good. Students were some straight up dudes and would have told us if there was something they really didn't like, but they actually couldn't come up with much of any problem they had with the school. The one thing they said was there's no windows.

Are you going here?

Lol kosher pizza was just as good as any pizza I've had.

 

[Dr Tony T. Chopper]

Nah but 2 of my friends from UG are going there! I deposited at AZCOM instead.

There was this really cute Asian girl on the student panel so free pizza, free soda and eye candy. 😍

Dude....I can only hope. Got an interview there shortly. Would make my life to get that acceptance.

 

[Dr Tony T. Chopper]

Dude don't worry. Pm me for school specific stuff at AZCOM.

Were you put on the interview waitlist?

Yup...better than a rejection I guess lol. Do you know the chances of getting an II off the wait list?

Under review 10/28
Final review 11/23
II 12/30. They were scheduling out to Feb & March when I called to schedule

 

[va6n]

...did anyone send a LOI after being put on the II-waitlist?

 

[plzletmein91]

does anyone know how receptive they are to extending the deposit deadline?

 

[Jg1984]

Anyone from 1/11 hear anything today?

 

[statuspost3]

Nothing yet here. I thought they said they would tell us by today :/

Do they send ii out on the same day?

 

[spidey066]

...did anyone send a LOI after being put on the II-waitlist?

I was thinking about doing that, but they specifically said in their email (when they waitlisted me pre-interview) to not send any updates to your application. It says that if they want an update they'll ask for it in a follow up email.

Anyone know if there's a second tuition deposit and when it's due? It looks like Touro-CA has a second deposit of $1000 due May 15th (if accepted before May 1st), so I'm wondering if TUN requires the same?

I am 99% sure there is no second tuition deposit. Someone please correct me if I am wrong!

 

[mark krunch]

Mind sharing when you got the complete e-mail? It's been over two months and I haven't heard anything yet. Been over a month since I got the final stages e-mail too.

...did anyone send a LOI after being put on the II-waitlist?

LOI right after being put on the waitlist FOR an interview? That seems kind of premature. It sounds more appropriate if you already interviewed, then were placed on the waitlist.

I just got an II yesterday and it's been a LONG wait. I submitted secondary first week of August, was informed my app was finally in review first week of November, placed under final review the last week of December, and finally the II! My stats are not amazing (but I have lots of exp) , which is maybe why I had to wait so long?

Anyways, I just got the interview confirmation and it says that my interview will be 20 minutes with 2 faculty. Is that all for the actual "interview"? I'm well aware that they observe you all day, but a single 20 minute interview is surprising! I'm interviewing March 22nd, which is pretty late. At that point is it pretty much just interviewing for the waitlist? Or does Touro save spots for the later cycle (I know some schools do this).

 

[ZT_530]

Does anyone know if the 3rd year rotation sites for Touro-Ca are available to TUNCOM students? Can you do the third year core rotations in Ca instead of Las Vegas?

 

[crazyboi1993]

Just declined interview invite from this school, after careful thinking, LECOM-B is higher up on my list!

 

[FancifulUnicorn]

Accepted 1/22, interviewed 1/11!! Gonna head back to Vegas to checkout Henderson some more. If you guys have any advice on places to see besides the strip, please let me know!!

 

[ZT_530]

Tomorrow can't come soon enough. Hopefully the 1/25 interviewers will hear back some good news.

 

[ZT_530]

Waitlisted... Oh well.

 

[pglo]

Interviewing in March. Any tips? I know they use a traditional format.
