I've actually been having trouble accessing the link anywhere this weekend. Was fine Friday afternoon, but came back Friday evening and the page wouldn't open in my home wifi, at school, or at a local coffee shop. Anyone else have this issue? Do they maybe do site maintenance on the weekend?
seems to be working fine now
Hey guys. Does Cornell only give out secondaries to people who have been status verified on their AMCAS?
Leave a line between paragraphs? (I haven't filled out my Cornell secondary yet, but that's what Case suggests people do in their secondary.)Anyone having problem with paragraph spacing in the secondary? Only shows up as 1 lump paragraph on the preview

Can any current students comment on housing accommodations? What are the dorms like? Are they affordable compared to other options? What's it like to share a kitchen with your entire floor?
Are the individual floors restricted to the same gender, or are they male and female?
In the first year you live in Olin Hall where you share a bathroom with one person and a kitchen with the whole floor. Most people get mini fridges and microwaves for their rooms. It's OK but not great and the pricing is affordable. I would not recommend living off campus unless necessary because there is so much bonding in the first year that happens in Olin and you feel left out.
In the years 2-4 you share an apartment in Lasdon House with 1-2 other people that you have selected. You each have your own room and share the bathroom and kitchen. This is pretty nice housing for NYC med student housing but since the rent goes up annually no matter what the general trend in real estate is you might want to look around to see if you find an apartment nearby that you like more. It's a hassle though and usually still pricier.
Couples housing is a lot trickier. It really depends on availability and sometimes it can get really tight now that more med and grad students have spouses/kids and the fact that they are in the process of doing construction and have not replaced the housing buildings they tore down yet.I know of a few people who had to look off campus because of shortages. I know many others who were able to get student housing so it's a toss up.
.... somehow Razor scooters are popular, so in leu of other reasonable forms of transportation, you can always scoot around, and no one will give you a sideways glance.
There's also a lot of rent-stabilized apartments and other cheap housing in the area, which ends up costing almost the same as the Cornell housing. Despite being on the Upper East Side, Cornell is sort of in a public-transportation no-man's land and living there is convenient really only if you work or study in the area (as I do). Unrelated, but somehow Razor scooters are popular, so in leu of other reasonable forms of transportation, you can always scoot around, and no one will give you a sideways glance.
Umm....the 6 is on 68th and Lex...
...and Cornell is on York. I know it sounds close, but walking Lex to third to second to first to york is actually a decent walk. Especially since most of NY is much closer to public transit. People (including our patients) complain about it all the time and the city is building a new subway on second avenue to solve this issue of upper east side transit congestion.
Everyone.Do they send secondaries to everyone who's verified or do they screen?
Congrats, blue plum!Tri-Institutional II,
