Yep, that's me. Dr. Stallworth. He can be pretty intimidating

The more I think about it, the more I believe he was trying to push my buttons. He just wouldn't cut me a break for anything I said . I think I handled it well, though.

That's how he always is. During my time spent with him this summer he always challenged everything that we all said. We had mock interviews and he ALWAYS played the devil's advocate. Very, very smart man, though. I would love to be one of his students, which is one of the main reasons I like USC so much.

I think they notify people around the same time each month - 16-18th-ish I think?

I asked and they said they hadn't sent out anything for this month yet. Dean of Admissions still has to meet with Dean of the school...hopefully that will be before they go on Christmas break!

Official acceptances should come in via snail-mail soon, other than that no news. As far as the fbook link, it's not working for me either.

hello. I'm back.

I haven't done anything yet. Just couple of days ago, I receive an email for background check up though I am not sure if it was for USC or other universities. It didn't mention.

I haven't filled my FAFSA yet. I heard that we have to fill FAFSA before applying for scholarships. Is that right?

Could you repost the correct FB link?

This is right. FAFSA is most important right now.

the other option is for people to PM you their names. Then if you add them as a friend you can add them to your group. I will PM you the link to the troubleshooting page on FB too.

I just interviewed this past Wednesday and they told us that it was going to take 4 weeks to hear back. And I think they told us that they were finishing up sending the Jan. interview acceptances this week. I'm not sure though but I would def. email/call them to check on your status. I hope you hear good news!

I interviewed in October but it is my understanding that they meet on the 15th of the month to discuss that cycle of applicants (Ex-Jan. 15-Feb. 15 interviewee applications)

So you should hear something around the middle of the month, good luck!

I interviewed January 25th and just heard back this Tuesday (February 7th) so you should be getting an email with their decision soon.

Got an acceptance from the school today. I'm going to MUSC though so I'm deferring it. Hopefully one of you gets my seat. Good luck to all of you!

You looking for house or apartment to rent?

Homes in shandon/rosewood would be very convenient to the school. As for apartments, I am not so sure. I knew a few medical students who lived in the 42 Magnolia apartment complex. It is nice and not too expensive. There are some newer town home type places right off of Garner's Ferry (main road in front of campus), that might be worth looking into.
