I can't give you any insight to LIU but I got accepted to/and plan to attend Touro NY for the following reasons:
- New York City. I figured if I'm gonna spend 4 years of my life somewhere, its gonna be somewhere amazing. School and rent is going to be expensive but I'm gonna make it worth it; Touro is the only pharmacy school in Manhattan so I plan to indulge in the vast clinical opportunities of the major institutions of the city.
-the test scores have been shaky in the past few years, but since its only graduated 2 classes they're still making adjustments. They just announced that they are no longer on accredidation probation and had their most recent class' pass rate to be 94%. Its a work in progress but its going in the right direction.
-professors.... I've heard hit and miss. With the 2 professors that I interviewed with, they were open, intelligent, caring and compassionate about their students. But that's only 2 professors. What I've heard from other people is that there are other professors with thick and heavy accents who you can't understand and don't care about the students.
I would assume LIU has a great program too but I don't know too much about it. The choice is yours in the end and which school you think is a better fit for you, good luck!
