I didn't want to create a whole new thread, but I had some questions. I'm not originally from Chicago but will be ranking it highly 2/2 wife's family and job. I liked Rush, and I understand the previous issues have largely been resolved. That being said, I'm having trouble comparing it to other...

Hi everyone. I am wondering if any of you went to/are attending UIC or Rush for OT and could tell me about your experience. I got into both programs and have been debating between the two for nearly a month, and it is getting very hard to choose!!! I liked Rush because it has a smaller cohort...

I am currently trying to decide between VCU and Rush and find myself flip-flopping every couple of days. What do you guys think? Long-term Career Goals: Competitive Specialty (preferably Ophtho/Otolyn/Rads/EM) West Coast Residency (prefer CA) Leave the door open for academic medicine/research...

Any help/insight is greatly appreciated! Rush Pros Loved the students on interview day Felt like a great "fit" Ample volunteer opportunities Nicer facilities Able to be at Cook County (underserved hospital) more during rotations Cons More expensive (~$50k over 4 years) UIC Pros Better...

Hello everyone! I have been fortunate enough to get into a couple schools this cycle and have narrowed my choices down to these two. I am born and raised in Michigan and currently go to OU for undergrad. I am pretty unsure about my long term career plans and would like to keep my options open...

I'm incredibly torn between both schools and was wondering if people can provide some insight into these institutions. I'm going to compile a list of pros and cons for both programs taking into consideration the information that I can find online and from you guys. Any input is very much...

Hi All! I am fortunate enough to have been accepted to both Rush and Medical College of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and would love some help making my decision! I do not have a specific specialty in mind yet, but would love to go into academic medicine. Rush: + Located in Chicago (it has always been...

What I understand the curriculum to be: Flipped Classroom in small group sessions led by faculty for a mandatory 15 hrs/week (missing more than 1 session results in disciplinary actions); 2 cases/week with Wednesday off, ~50-90 pages of reading per case No traditional lectures (learn on your own...

Hey folks! I wanted to start a thread to connect with those who have already or are going to interview at Rush. I’m looking forward to meeting you all! I’ll be at the Jan. 8th Interview.

Hey SDN, I've been lurking this site for a long time but didn't want to post until I was certain that I had been admitted somewhere. During the application process, I really just wanted to make sure I was admitted somewhere, without much mind to tier, prestige of a school, etc. And I have– I...

Here's my situation: I've been accepted to two schools. SLU gave my my financial aid package already. Rush hasn't given me a financial aid package because apparently I didn't include something in the FAFSA that I needed to (parents w2 apparently). So I probably won't know what the package is for...

Anyone apply already or planning to apply?

Starting my pharmacy residency in Chicago in June/July and looking for female roommate(s)!

Hello All, I was wondering if there was anyone out there that applied to these 1 year masters programs and still pursued dentistry. I recently took my dat (literally yesterday) and did pretty bad, don't ask, I did horrible :oops: My initial step is to apply to these, programs, but I have a...

I was just accepted to Rush this morning and I realized I wanted to hear some personal experience from somebody within the program before I make any decisions. 1) What is the relationship between faculty and students like? 2) What is your experience with other medical profession students at...
