FAQ's
Are transcripts required?
We require official transcripts from all postsecondary institutions that you have attended, including an official transcript which verifies the award of a Bachelors degree.
Is proof of immunization required?
Proof of immunization is required before students can register for classes. You do not have to submit this with your application package but it’s a good idea since you will need to provide it before you register. For further information and forms see: http://www.touro.edu/registrar/immunization.asp
What happens after I’ve submitted my application?
Once your application package has been received it will be reviewed by a Program Chair. You will then be contacted by phone to arrange an appointment for your interview. If you haven’t heard from us within two weeks from the date you mailed your application please contact the Program Office.
When can I register for classes?
If you are accepted into the program your Program Advisor will help you register for classes straight after your interview.
Can I submit my application in person?
Yes. Please be aware that program staff may not be able to review your application the same day, so you may have to return for an interview appointment at a later date.
Do you accept transfer credits?
Yes, we accept graduate transfer credits from regionally accredited institutions. You will need to submit an official transcript for the classes you wish to transfer. The maximum number of transfer credits varies across Programs and can be found on department web-pages.
