Wanderlust Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Hi everybody, I am a current student in the program and happened to stumble across this forum. Here are a couple things I can share with you. For starters, the first interview session for prospective students is in the later part of October this year. But they will go all the way until April so keep checking your emails. I have some people in my class who interviewed pretty late in the cycle and made it in. So don't give up hope if you don't hear anything right away. There are a lot of people applying to this program this cycle so give it some time. Hang in there and good luck!

kennedypa Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Hey all! Quick question. I submitted through CASPA on 8/25, but never received a confirmation or an invite for the secondary application. From what I'm seeing here, it looks like it takes a while for secondary app invites to go out. Anyone know if they send a confirmation upon delivery of CASPA submission? Thanks guys!

They send out an email once they begin reviewing your application I believe. I submitted July 17th and they responded the 29th with an email saying "Thank you for applying to the Touro University California Joint MSPAS/MPH program for the Class of 2019. Your CASPA application was recently uploaded into our system and is currently being reviewed." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fsaelee Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Congrats to those who got an invite and good luck! I am still anxiously waiting to hear back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilemma84 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Does anyone know the estimate cost of this program? I saw the cost estimator on the website and it came out to be around $150k for the program, pretty steep for PA school comparing to other programs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjn Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Yeah, that sounds pretty much right for 3 years. I work for a PA and she graduated with ~147K not too long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPA1 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I went to a meeting at Touro recently and their handout said the estimated cost for 3 years was over 230k...... that's living, health insurance etc. included. Expensive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dilemma84 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I went on to their website and used cost of attendance to calculate. For the class of 2018, first year including room and board which is already 20K, first year would be $66,581, second year $85,694 (tuition and room/board went up), third year is $85,364. It's very steep even for a 3 year program. I understand that room and board would be expensive because the area, but considering that the demographic of the previous classes are 30-40% economically disadvantaged, it is more than some of the MD/DO programs. I wonder if they offer any type of financial assistance to student at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMC2PA Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I sent in my application around the second week of September and I didn't get any feedback if they had received my application, but I emailed and I had a reply that I will be emailed once my application has been received and processed. No email yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
