If you log into your merlin account, it should tell you!! Mine says March 6th!

 

[rpahuja]

Do we have to wait until we get the letter in the mail to know what campus they assigned us to?

That's what I'm wondering! There was a part in the email that said they would try their best to honor campus preferences but it never stated the campus haha

 

[pharmingiscool]

Can anyone give me pro and cons about tech And UH?

[romylove]

Every who has been accepted up through this post should have received a message from me with the Facebook links. If you have not, please let me know!

 

[klavinia4]

Can anyone give me a realistic cost of attendance?
Such as:
Tuition
books
housing/living expenses
and anything else you can think of

 

[romylove]

Tuition for 2 semesters was 15,700 and some change. No one buys books, and if they do, they're cheap used ones, usually from other students. As far as living, it depends on the campus. I am in Amarillo with a roommate, and rent is $427.50/per person/ month. We live at one of the nicer/closer places though.

Does 15,700 cover tuition only or does it include any extra fees?

All tuition and fees.

No, we have a 2 bed 2 bath apartment. I only wish I lived with my boyfriend again.

On average how much are your monthly bills and expenses? Trying to get an idea of what I should expect.

Thank you for being so helpful.
If you dont mind, can you describe a day of your life as a PharmD student?

What did you do during the summer between P1 and P2?( intership maybe?)

 

[speights96]

Has anyone who was accepted on 2/24 actually received the letter in the mail yet?

I'm actually still a P1, so I'm planning to work as an intern this summer.

Typical day? First semester get up, get to biochem a little before 8, we had 2 classes, a 40 minute break, 2 more classes, then either done for the day or go to labs 2-3 days per week depending on what lab days you picked. Ideally you'd study every evening to keep the material fresh, but I would usually study the night before.

Second semester we have 8am lab 1 day a week, all other days we start at 10:30 (11 on Fridays). 2 classes, 40 minute break, 2-3 more classes, if you have A&P then you're done a little after 4. I'm making a point to study more in advance this semester.

Mine was but I emailed Mike and he said that it just had to be postmarked by that date and he also let me scan the letter and email him! There's probably delays due to weather b/c my letter was postmarked for February 26th and I just received it yesterday!
