Congratulations on your acceptances! What did you information packet from Touro indicate with regards to seat deposit deadlines and registration deadlines since I know that both "events" require separate deposits. I am just trying to gauge how much longer it will be until I receive a decision since it seems like they are waiting for those accepted to submit payment before officially admitting or rejecting applicants with lower scores. Thanks for your help!
