First off I would like to apologize to all users for having to recap several posts that have been made by the above named person in order to answer properly. Our Admissions Department Has never and will never ask a student about their abilility to pay. Students are either accepted or declined based on previous academic performance and their overall goals and States in which they might want to practice as an Licensed Professional only. The Finance Office, which is headed my myself receives information on the students that have been accepted several days after the interview has been conducted....so sorry to punch holes in your little story there mynameisearl but you might have us confused with another school...or of course the the possibility that you are from another school trying to ruin the reputation of any other school that you deem potentially a threat.

Additionally, you can be found on several other schools forums stating that you are currently a student there, while in your first post on this thread states that you were accepted by us and that we were the first school you applied to. So I ask you if you are a student here, what kind of animal lives on the campus?....

You also mention that you have only enquired about SGU, yet the above post is from St Matthews forum...Fess up and stop the nonsense.....Allow the forum to be utilized for factual information....even though it might be negative...no school is perfect but blatant lies serve no purpose to anyone.

So is this student a liar too????

st theresa's admin,

Georgia, New York, Arizona, Florida, and Illinois are listed on your website as states students do there rotations in.

what is the extent to the cores offered in new york and florida?

In Response to Scott1981 and his/her request for information: Please feel free to contact the University and make full application to the program. Should you be qualified for admission directly to the clinical program a student handbook complete with parameters of training, legal, ethical and regulatory guidelines is provided. Therein one would also find the listings of all hospitals complete with address and appropriate contact information. This information is provided to qualified students only and each student is asked to sign an agreement that they will not contact any hospital directly, but rather correspond through the Clinical Education Department of STMU. This is done to respect the directive given to us by the hospitals. It is the hospital administration who has established this guideline and for this reason STMU respects and follows their directive. Any STMU student who fails to respect this directive established by the clinical department and any university hospitalis subject to disciplinary action by the appropriate University Committee.

In response to the above:

I cannot honestly comment about the nature of that individuals interview. Policies are implemented and followed as to the entire admission process. It is not unheard of for any institution of higher learning to enquire as to the method of payment in order to assist the student. But it should only be done after the Admission board has admitted the student to matriculate into their chosen path. Financial means should not be used as part of the admission process leaving students with the wrong impression that yes maybe their grades or MCAT were low, but being that I am fully funded I'm a shue in. That type of admission policy serves no purpose. To the student, to the University as well as the global Heath and Education fields.
If money was the sole criteria for acceptance. I can clearly state that our classrooms would be filled, but hence that is not the case.

So again in response to your query, was that student a liar also?......not entirely. meaning, I have no control over how anyone posts here and/or their perception of events. Was I in the room....no...Heck, I am not even sure that it is truly one of our students...but it is not inline with our policies.

No one is perfect, least to say no school is perfect...the difference is those that are willing to admit and therefore correct problems as they occur to the betterment of all concerned should stand apart from those that hide under cover of night.

i am not leaving my current school nor did i ever have plans to do so. what i was specifically curious about was your rotations in florida and ny mainly because those states have approval lists. st theresas is not approved by either one. non approved schools can only offer under 12 weeks of rotations in ny and 1-2 "sporadic" rotations in florida.

do you offer cores there? how long are your rotations that you offer there? are you going over the limit for a non approved school?

these questions on this post will not violate any agreement you have with any hospital because you will not be giving up their name.

scott1981's question seems reasonable enough to be answered on this forum. Info about the hospitals your students are able to rotate through shouldn't be a secret.
I can go on sgu, ross, auc, saba, smu, etc websites and get a listing of the hospitals that students rotate through.
If fla and ny aren't available, why not just say so?

what i think we have here is false advertising. why are those states listed on their website?

why the secrecy? im starting to think this is similar to what AUA did when they listed that there students can go and rotate in california.

st theresas admin........ clarify this because its not sounding too kosher.
