It was stated by Steven Davis at the last info session. It's also listed on our TUC orientation portal
For some reason I can’t seem to find it. I hate to be a bother but do you mind telling where exactly on the orientation page? I clicked on the link in our admissions packet and I’m under DSA orientation

Is campusgroups the same as TUConnect? If so, yes I can sign in now. There' a checklist of about 45 items we need to complete for the new student orientation. From what I can tell, they aren't too difficult or complicated (ie submit FASFA, verify access to student email, add TouroOne App to your phone, put orientation dates on your calendar, etc ). I just started on them this week.

Did you get that checklist in email ? I think it’s separate.

Like myelinsh3ath said, I have access to the checklist when I sign in through TUC Connect. You check off items as you complete them. I did not get a separate email.

*edit: I did however get an email with a sign in code to Campus Groups on 4/30.

Did it take a while after you got your acceptance for you to get that code? Right now TUC Connect says it doesn't recognize my email address to send me a login. I am wondering if that is an error or if they just haven't given me access yet.

Did you activate your TouroOne Portal? I think it takes about 2 days after activating your portal. If the problem persists, I would go ahead and give the Technology Assistance number a call listed on the TouroOne portal

Yeah, I can log in to TouroOne and access everything on my portal except that page so I will ask them. Thanks!

I felt like it did take a while. The code came from the CampusGroups listserve. I was accepted in Feb and just got the code late April. Then again, they may have not been giving out the code back then. Also, once you get the code/access make sure you select/click the Touro Login. It should lead you to the Touro One login.

Hey everyone, I sent in my app in late March and got verified shortly after. I still havent received a response. Should I send a follow up email or should I just wait? The initial email did say it may take up to 30 days for a decision.

You could wait if you want. I heard some people received acceptances late june/early july

What do y'all think can cause a delay in the admissions decision? Should I follow up if I have a missing LOR, though I've met the minimum 2 LOR requirement? I don't think I'm missing anything else in my application. It's been almost over a month :O
 
For any who's reached out to the Admissions Office regarding their app status, did they provide you with an update or did they instruct you to wait for further notifications later on and that your app was still in review?

Typically this time becomes slower because of finals and waitlist stuff with admissions for DO.

Generally an admissions committee involves faculty, students and other staff. The faculty that teaches MSMHS also teach COM. So around this time they would be incredibly busy with wrapping up the school year for everyone, hence delay in admissions. You could contact Naisha Bible if you think you're missing something but they would contact you for sure if you are missing something. Admissions is on a rolling basis so people could be admitted even a few days before orientation. You can check out the youtube video for the last info session. There is a link to the video in the info session link mentioned in a previous message. They do talk about a lot of useful information.

Is the May Info Session going to be on Tuesday or Wednesday? They said May 12, but I know the Info Sessions are usually Tuesdays, does anyone know more about this?

That’s a good questions. Like you said, the email says Tuesday May 12th but the 12th is a Wednesday. We did have 1 info session on a Wednesday but the other 2 were Tuesdays. I just sent a email asking for clarification but does anyone happen to know? I’ll make a post on here if I get a response.

Fall will be remote/virtual. The spring semester will be in-person/hybrid. Although this is not confirmed till next month but this is what they mentioned what the plan will likely be for the year.

Just curious, does this mean there would be no need to live near campus correct?

not until spring?
 
Who has applied a few months ago and still haven't heard back? 😮 I haven't heard back yet still 🤔
 
is the deadline july 27th or is that for last year? the schools website says the 27th but the application says June 1st.

They won't view you as annoying, they will give you the same response that they give everyone which is that they will notify you once they have a decision. They are used to getting a lot of emails!
 
Applied 05/02... Accepted 05/19! Very excited and can't wait to go!

Did anyone who was accepted reply to the class email thread or get accepted to the facebook group?

Congrats!

As far as I know, no one has replied to the class thread. But I have been accepted to the Facebook group. There’s just over 20 people in the group so far. It took a few days before I was added to the group.
