Noob question, on the facebook page I see people describing themselves as M21 or M18 /M19 . Have any idea what are they referring to ?

What do they say is the reason for asking you ? What did you answer?

They don't specify a reason, other than that they have offered this in previous years.

I do not plan on deferring.

*Edit* I did post the whole email, but I am not sure TUSM would want me broadcasting entire emails that may only be directed at a small subset of SDN users, so I took it down.
 
Any accepted students looking to move to Boston early? I have an apartment available in July that is a 30min commute to the medical school on public transportation. It's in a safe area with 2 female young professionals that would respect your need for quiet study time.

How did you hear about this? Do you know if it applies to the Maine track?
They sent a email saying it and asking people to defer for a free year of a MPH. There is no way to know if it applies to the Maine track but I would guess it does.
 
Is there even any point in applying there for next year if they're just going to accumulate deferrals to fill next year's class?

A few hundred people get accepted every year, regardless of any deferrals (if anyone actually ever accepts them). If you like the school, it doesn't make sense not to apply.
