Have you been keeping in contact with the admissions office? Give them a call and ask about your chances if you havent. They won't tell you how many people there are on the list or where you are ranked but they might hint at what your chances are. It's worth a shot plus you keep your name fresh and that can't hurt.

I emailed them before.

who do you call?
Isn't there a new admission counselor?
Do I call Oscar?

 

[DocOfTheBay]

Amber is the new admissions counselor. She should be able to help you.

 

[DocOfTheBay]

Anyone get an offer or decide to drop their seat today?

I woke up to a phone call from the 702 area code and it was Amber on the other line offering me a seat in this year's class! I thought I was dreaming. Its just starting to hit me now..I've spent the whole morning thanking everyone who has helped me get here.

I'll be rooting for you HopeBoy!
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Appreciate all the support DO2BWife! Wish I could've met you and your husband this fall at Touro, but medicine is a long journey and hopefully we'll run into each other somewhere later down the road. Best of luck to you guys at RVU!!

 

[HopeBoy]

anybody else get accepted off the high wait list this week?

Hope you hear something this week
I'm not sure if Touro NV still selects stand-by students(in the case that an accepted student does not show up at orientation), but try asking Oscar or Amber about it. You got to let admissions know how much you want to attend Touro NV this fall! Good luck!

They might?
Either way, I need Thetruth12345 to get accepted first...
Don't think I will be hearing anything this week. 😱😕

I really want to know how many people are on the medium WL

TheTruth12345 might not be active on this board. Have you started your application for the 2012-2013 cycle? Good luck!

yep. ready to submit after I see what happens.

TheTruth12345 hasn't been accepted yet, but we're pulling for him. As far as how many are on the medium wait list, nobody but admissions knows. Wait lists tend to be longer than you'd think, however.

well that's good to know.

 

[Hopefulslack]

I actually asked Oscar how many students are on each level of the waitlist. I dont want to burst anyone's bubble but I was told approximately 30 on each level.

if that's the case, then the HIGH wait list should almost be over. 😕

Hey HopeBoy, I've been following your post history through last cycle, I'm pulling for you.

What are plans if Touro's class is full? Are you accepted anywhere else/going to re-apply this cycle?

 

[HopeBoy]

Well, by the time I was done with mcat and aacomas, only Touro was still open for applying.
So I mainly apply only to Touro. So, if i don't get in this cycle, I'll reapply for next cycle and to more schools of course.

Time will tell. If I'm meant to get in this cycle, then I'll go. Otherwise, I hope I get interviews for all the other schools I haven't applied to yet for next cycle.

Are you also applying for Touro NV? or medical school in general?
or are you already in?

Keep your fingers crossed, you have up until orientation for that acceptance! 🙂

This was supposed to be my cycle, however I chickened out on my MCAT so I'm planning on taking the new revised MCAT in january and applying next cycle (June 2013). By then I feel I'll be adequately prepared and can maximize my app.

Touro-NV is one of my school choices- esp. wanting to stay on the west coast. I'd love to remain instate here in AZ, but I'm really open for any school and have read great things about Touro-NV!

Hi People,

I am new to this tread...and currently applying for 2013 entering class (already submitted AACOMAS)... I have sGPA 3.8.. but only have 26 on my MCAT... Do you guys think I will have a chance for TUCOM? how about other osteopathic schools?

Thanks for any reply!

You should definitely check out the 2012/2013 Underdog Thread. Lots of people have been accepted with lower stats than you...but of course, there's more to the application that just stats.

Hey Everyone,

Sorry for being MIA, as I was out of the country on a medical mission. I just got the call that I am first alternate. I think they may be finished with the wait-list for now - not sure though.

If someone drops between now and the first 2 weeks, I'm in. If not, then I have a guaranteed seat for next year!

I am still pulling for those on medium, e.g. HopeBoy!!!

In any case, just wanted to keep errbody in the loop 🙂

😀

May I ask when you were contacted? Just curious.

 

[TheTruth12345]

Hey HopeBoy,

I was contacted about standby on 7/25 and then yesterday (7/31) they officially accepted me! There is still hope!!!!!!!!!

🙂

Congrats.

But they are only taking 2 people for standby.
And I just left the country yesterday.
If I get a call, I hope they give me the option to deferred til next year. Well I can only get an email now, no phone calls. 2 more days to hear something. But I'll doubt I will hear anything.

Looking towards the next cycle. Life must move on.
