    I read in earlier posts that a lot of Touro students take two classes at a time. How difficult is this? Although I am used to accelerated courses/schools, juggling numerous courses is foreign to me.

    Two classes are a piece of cake; I feel I could have done three. BUT the last two classes I am taking requires about twice as much time as the othre classes.

    I spent about 10-15 hours a week for the two classes.

    Let me clarify - I spent about 10-15 hours a week for the two classes for the previous 7 classes I have taken. Now I spend about 20-30 hours a week.

    Re: taking two classes....

    How many assignments/exams did you write while taking both classes. I just want to compare the requirements between Touro and U. of Phoenix.

    In the classes I have taken at Touro. Each class has a case and a slp paper due every module which is two weekslong. There are six modules.

    Phd program

    Like in the previous post, I've got a SLP assignment and a Case assignment every 2 weeks. The SLP assignment is drawn out over the quarter, but averages 5-6 written pages per 2 week period. The Case averages around the same length, so I'm doing 10-15 pages every 2 weeks plus research.

    Thanks. Just about the same across the board.
    U of P, NCU and Athabasca have similar requirements.

    There's an ongoing poll at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TUI/ where something like 49% of those who voted take two courses per term (session). And another 12% or so are taking three courses per term.

    Does anyone have an update on Touro and it's accreditation issues? I have been strongly considering their MS-ITM but really want to know if the accreditation issue with middle states is cleared up before I apply.

    Wait till June

    From what I've read on TUI's yahoo board, the report won't come out till June.

    All the issues relate to the PhD program. I would not really worry to much about the MS-ITM program.
