There are plenty of things to do around RFU/CMS for fun: have some drinks with friends at a bar, go to the beach, take the Metra downtown, hang out with friends on campus, play Foosball (my personal favorite)...etc.
There are a multitude of clubs on campus - basically anything you can think of, and if the specific club you are looking for isn't already established, by all means start it.

For current students at CMS, how do you like going to class with other grad students? How is the atmosphere with other health profession students?

Just got accepted this morning! It is my first one too! I interviewed on 3/26 if that matters to anyone. Good luck to everyone else. It looks like a lot of wait lists will be moving soon!

I updated them on an international medical placement that I did, and I stated my interest in the school too. I guess it worked! Good luck everyone!

Navy housing is really very nice. It is much cheaper and is just across the street from the VA and the school.

Yes I spoke to my advisor and she told me that they sent out a final admissions status to the students (at least to students already at RFUMS) and apparently everyone else received an email but me. My email is lost in cyberspace 
now I have to wait until Tuesday or later
now I have to wait until Tuesday or laterWhat do you recommend as the best way of taking notes? If you (or any other current students) use an ipad, could you tell me whether it's useful to get a stylus and do some note taking/picture drawing on it? Also, do you know whether RF gives you access to medical textbooks for anatomy, etc through your ipad? I understand that some people are really good at using their tablets for school purposes but honestly, I'm not super tech savvy. If I could get away with taking my laptop, pencil, notebook to class and take notes the old-fashioned way, I might just stick with that...
Thanks!

I'm still so undecided between buying a laser printer or a tablet. A tablet would be really convenient because you can easily have all your notes with you. But at the same time, I kinda like writing on paper @.@

There is a discussion going on in the facebook group regarding just these questions. Just to reiterate what I said there, I have an android tablet and loved it this past year. Really helped me out. Note-taking is best done on a laptop, but it works on the tablet as well. I really used it to study using lots of different apps, and some pdf's of the textbooks that were handed down to us from the previous class.
Which apps on the tablet would you recommend us to download for note taking, downloading pdfs, annotating pdfs, opening textbooks, etc.

I had no issues using whatever reader apps came with the tablet as far as reading the pdf's. As far as taking notes, there is an app called Evernote, and another called MobileNoter that you can sync with OneNote

So I called them on thursday and they said they have taken multiple individuals out of the wait list pool (didn't give an exact number) They said the class is currently full and will accept new people when someone drops or withdraws. So overall, just sit and wait

Congrats to all who got accepted! I'm posting this on behalf of my brother because it seems the housing forum site is down Anyways, please feel free to PM me if you're interested or have any questions. Thank you
This is a two bedroom apartment located on the 3rd floor of The Woodlands on Green Bay Apartments, which is right across the street from Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science. I am a 23-year-old male and will be a first year medical student at the university this fall. I am seeking a roommate to fill the second room.
WHO: I am looking for a male student at RFUMS, preferrably a medical student. However, any other students from RFUMS will be great too.
DETAILS: The apartment has two separate bedrooms and two separate private bathrooms. Each half of the apartment has its own door and private entryway. In addition, both sides have their own doors that can be locked and lead into the common area/kitchen. The living area/common area is spacious and leads to a sliding patio door which leads to a balcony. There is ample parking outside.
NEIGHBORHOOD: This is an extremely safe neighborhood (I lived here for the past year while completing a master's program at RFUMS) and is very calm, as almost everyone living on the property is a student. Management is also great and every helpful.
OTHER COSTS: The water, sewer, and trash fee is $39/month, or $19.50 per person per month. Other utilities that will be split per month include internet, TV, gas, and electric. All of these utilities come to approximately $100 (or less) per month per person.
OTHER INFO: The door to enter the apartment complex is also locked, for additional safety. Other amenities include a fitness center, swimming pool/sun deck, tennis courts, picnic/barbeque area, dog walk, club house/media room, and laundry facilities.

Hello, I'm really new to this. I just got off waitlist last Friday, so I've been apartment hunting. I found a really nice two bedroom deluxe at Woodlands, and I'm looking for a female roommate to share it with me.
Also congrats to the incoming class of 2016!! =)

DETAILS: The apartment has two separate bedrooms and two separate private bathrooms. The living area/common area is spacious and leads to a sliding patio door which leads to a balcony. The apartment includes a washer/dryer so you don't have to use the shared ones.
NEIGHBORHOOD: It's 0.32 miles from school. I really don't know too much about it. But I've heard some great things about the place from past students. Also, the apartment complex includes a tennis court, swimming pool, dog park, and other awesome amenities.
