smashweights or any other current students... Does Wright recommend a specific stethoscope? Do they require you to get a cardio grade steth or will a Littman Classic suffice?

there is no requirement for what scope you get. you won't need your medical equipment for the first month or so and then you'll get a list of equipment to buy during ICM. They also have an equipment sale around the end of Sept for you to buy everything you need. If you already have a stethoscope, you'll be fine.
 
Congrats on those graduating today!
 
Hey everybody,

First time posting, so go easy on me please haha... Got offered a place off the waitlist a couple weeks ago and officially accepted yesterday, so it looks like I'll be joining the Class of 2015 at WSU! I'm super excited to get my medical education here as I just loved everything about the school and the people there.

Anyways, I haven't received my WSU email/password yet and haven't been able to fill out a profile and check out the rest of the class, but I'm just in a rush to find a place to live and roommate as soon as possible. I know there's an excel file or something that the med school sends to you that has everyone else's profile and living situation, but I don't think I'll be able to access that for another week or two. I went down to Dayton two weekends ago and checked a few apartment complexes out and they are filling up fast, so basically I wanted to know the best way to match up with a roommate (preferably an M1 as well)?

I don't mean to be too forward, but if anyone in the Cleveland area is willing to meet up for a beer or something I'd definitely be down for that. It might just be a good way to meet fellow first-years and potentially find a roommate. It's just one less thing to worry about haha... Ok, thanks guys!

Try signing up for the facebook group page. I see a lot of advertisements in there.
 
any word on how waitlist movement is going so far? I'm waiting on pins and needles
 
Yes actually though I only use it to check the FB group. So if you're looking for me, I'm the one with no FB profile. 😀

Fair enough. I have my privacy settings really stringent, so I think all you can see is my picture and where I went to college. 👍
 
Just got word that the insurance forms should be up by mid-June.
 
Just got the call that I was accepted off the waitlist but I'm at work so I couldn't answer. So excited!
 
Just got the call around 1:30 est. Accepted off of the wait list.

interview 1/26
WL sometime in april
OOS
 
Congrats! 👍
 
Can anyone reccommend any good apartment complexes around the school/are there any to stay away from? I haven't looked at all I just wondered if anyone could give me a place to start haha.
 
Congrats to those who just got in off the waitlist! 👍

doit4themunki: There are lots of apartments complexes within a 10-15 minute drive from WSU. I suggest joining the Facebook group where there's a good discussion brewing (just search Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine Class of 2015). But, if you don't wanna do that, here's my synopsis of quality apartments in no particular order -

1. Mallard Landing ($850/mo for 2 bed, 2 bath)
2. The Promenade ($950/mo for 2 bed, 2 bath on avg)
3. The Reserve at Channingway ($825/mo for 2 bed, 2 bath)
4. Ashton Brooke ($800-900/mo for 2 bed, 2 bath) - very popular location, which is why I decided against it 😛
5. Wexford on the Green ($750-800/mo for 2 bed, 2 bath)
6. Immediately off-campus apts w/ lots of undergrads, idk the names ($550-750/mo)

There are lots of others, but this'll at least give you a starting place!

Some of those places are filled with long waitlists, especially close to campus. This was 3-4 weeks ago when I was apt hunting.

Just FYI.
 
congrats guys! great to know there's some movement on that list.... those of you that got the offer, are you set on attending WSU or are you going elsewhere? did they also tell you anything about financial aid?

congrats once again!
 
quick question for current students:

do you know what times the classes meet? is this info on the website somewhere? all i can see are the days the classes meet on the calendar.

edit: nm i see last year's schedule.

oh shoot! that sucks! there are also places near The Greene and down in the Centerville/Kettering area closer to UD. it just makes the hike a bit longer on those 8 am days.

also, just remembered - I know someone living at Yorktown Colony which is actually in Riverside. he says it doesn't seem so crowded. the upside, rent for a 1 bed, 1 bath is like $450 (dirt cheap). the downside, the complex is noisy and not very nice...

it's only about 10 mins from campus, past the AFB. 👍
 
Congrats to the new acceptees! If you're finding a lot of apt waitlists, you can also check out the Properties at Wright Field, about 6 minutes from campus on colonel glenn. $725/mo. 2 bed, 1.5 bath w/garage and no pet fees. The soon-to-be wife and I are living there.

I withdrew my application last week. So that's one more spot available.
 
wow. this waitlist movement is way too slow. so i decided on D.O. for sure and withdrew my application. good luck to those in waiting!
 
I am hoping everyday that I get accepted off the waitlist 🙂 Congrats to everyone who has been accepted!
 
I was accepted off the waitlist on Friday and plan on attending! See you all soon!
 
Another open spot. Accepted off the wait-list on Friday but withdrew. Good luck
folks.
 
Anyone get their financial aid disbursement?
 
Hi everyone! Congrats to everyone who has been accepted!! I know school starts next week, but I am praying and keeping a little bit of hope that I get a last minute phone call so I can join everyone for the entering class off of the waitlist.
 
There is still some waitlist movement. I was offered a seat on Tuesday and I accepted! This week has been a whirlwind.
