Ahh, Touro Nevada, you toyed with my heart like it was a toy heart.
Hey, I'm really sorry to hear that Suleman. I was really pulling for you and the others on here. Keep your head up, get your apps in ASAP, and remember that you are going to be a great doctor someday, even if it takes a little longer than you initially thought. I wish you all the best. Same goes for everyone else who is facing reapplication.

Hey does anybody who visits this thread - incoming students, current students, etc, know why the TUNCOM/Valley Hospital Dermatology residency is being "phased out?" According to the opportunities.osteopathic.org website:
How many new trainees do you intend to recruit next year?
None, program is being phased out.
Any info??

congratulations to all of you who got in for this fall. wish you guys the best of luck in your first year and it was really nice talking to all you guys throughout the whole process...made some rough days go by a lot easier. well anyways I have applied again for next year so hopefully I will get the pleasure of meeting most of you guys in person next year, until then good luck and keep up the hard work.
I know that the wait list was ranked and all, but I feel like keeping in contact with the school, even when they tell you not to is extremely beneficial. You don't have to drive to the school in person, but keeping your name fresh in their minds has to make some difference. I sent an email to Oscar the day before I was accepted, telling him I was still really interested and that I was ready to reapply for the next year, with Touro at the top of my list. When he accepted me, he mentioned that he knew that I was really interested in the school because I had kept in contact with him throughout the process. So, no matter what any school tells you, bug them. Find anything to contact them about, and do it every once in a while, just to remind them that you are still there. I don't see how it can possibly have a negative impact on your application.
Yeah I should have probably kept in touch with Oscar, but I was just following what they told me. Oh well, there's always next year I guess. I wish all of you luck with your first year at touro-nv!
They are phasing out the derm program to make way to open a new Pulm fellowship and other possible fellowships. The pulm fellowship is supposed to open this upcoming yr while GI or cards are in the works/proposal. This is the last yr they are accepting ppl for derm.

eccool, come find me at orientation and introduce yourself! It will be nice to know a fellow SDNer in person. You know my name. I didn't see any other Melissas.
And to everyone who was not accepted, keep at it. Use the knowledge you gained this cycle to turn each of those applications into an interview, and each of those interviews into an acceptance. You guys know you can do it!
