Accepted to both programs, which master program is better to get into TUN or PNWU?
Seems like both master's are linked/interview to DO as long as to get 3.5+ and 500/25 for MCAT from masters. Both schools are great but I think TUN is better in location wise.

Any feedback please?

I just declined my acceptance to TUN. I couldn't start that early (First week of July), I hear the program is great though and the location is awesome. I know the interview for TUN was 3.0GPA and 25/500 MCAT. But where did you hear about the MAMs information? I can't find that anywhere.

I declined my TUN application too.
I would have stayed but didn't like how now they require the GRE>

I wouldn't count on MAMs being an "in" to PNWU. They increased the class size, used to be 25 but it is now 50. The admissions counselor I spoke with at PNWU made a point to say there may not always be an agreement with the Heritage MAMs program.

Declined Heritage and accepted to TUN. Aren't most of the schools increased their class size to 50-60 for master program. Its another way of making $$$. Its all business.

Just curious, why TUN over Heritage? I understand increasing class size is in order to increase revenue. This is not about Heritage but in general it's just too bad some of these programs aren't as altruistic as they expect their applicants to be.

Because TUN's master program is linked to PA, MSN, DNP, OT, PT & DO but guaranteed interview to PA and DO. My guess is chances will be more for any field you want to go to because it will be a combined program. Its my guess from FB page.

More update. This week is an orientation for MHS class of 2017-2018. They have changed as compared to last year or year before. No more guaranteed acceptance instead everyone in this program will be interviewed for PA or DO as long they meet the minimum requirements. I heard they wanted 60 students but got only 45 which is better for students to get into PA or DO program.
