Hi everyone!
Long time no post! I see lots has been going on with people getting accepted etc. Congrats to those who're in and best wishes to all who're still waiting/interviewing. I'm still in the interviewing boat, but I've gotten in somewhere.
I thought I'd post and ask about this since I've only gotten in to one school. The school (Temple) is asking for a $100 fee for me to reserve my place in the 2002 class. To add to the grief, it's nonrefundable. Does every school ask for as high a fee? I mean if Temple's the only place I get into I'm going, hands down. But in the event that I choose not to go there, well, that's $100 down the drain. And if I get in anywhere else and decide not to go there but still pay the fee to reserve my place, even more money flushed. 🙁 Just some rants. I suppose $100 is a drop in the bucket compared to, oh, $100K in debt. 😀
On a totally unrelated note, how're you guys handling the FAFSA thing? I have no idea which schools are going to interview me-- let alone accept me-- in the next few months (I submitted AMCAS fairly late). What happens if I submit FAFSA and get another interview and possibly even get accepted? Does FAFSA let you add schools past their deadline?
Thanks for any feedback. I'm a psych major and without the help of a real premed advisor I'm a little slow at learning about these application things.
Oooh! Time for Scrubs! 😀
