Well, the City of Elmira can be a very dreary and depressed place, for sure. There's a lot to do in the surrounding areas, though. The Finger Lakes/Wine Country is all around. Ithaca is nearby as is Corning (one of the top art destinations in the U.S.). I've lived in the Corning area for many years myself. I don't make too many visits to Elmira, though, I must admit. But the proximity of Arnot to my home is perfect! LECOM can dump me there any time!!! Thanks for the information....very exciting (for me anyway).

It's one site where you do all your core rotations.

I just got awarded $57,000 in financial aid (Federal Direct Unsubsidized Ln & Federal Direct Graduate PLUS Loan). Do u guys think it's a good idea to accept all of it now and then accept lesser amount the following years as needed. I highly doubt I'd need $57,000 for two semesters; im thinking of keeping some extra money as contingency plan. What do u guys think?

Take the full award and be financially secure for the year. In the long run, reducing it by a few thousand dollars isn't going to save you that much on interest over the course of school and residency, and if your car breaks down or something else major, you'll be glad you have it.

Is that a spot many students try to get?
