Ah, I see. Thank you.Higher interest rates
Do private loans accrue interest during school while federal loans are interest-deferred?Higher interest rates
What does this look like? Like you're in residency making $50k/year expected to make $2,000/month and up payments? Or can you defer while in residency/fellowship?There is also no income-based repayment with private loans AFAIK

Just curious. I threw a primary in, but I don't know if I'm going to bother with the secondary - if I get one - with this whole private loans thing.
Do we just email in our secondary application on that pdf they sent?
This morningWhen did you receive it?
Thank you for starting this thread! We typically include the secondary question prompts in the first post of a school-specific thread - would you be willing to edit your post to add them? I'll include them here also:The California University of Science and Medicine-School of Medicine is now accepting applications for Fall 2018. We are listed on AMCAS and are located in beautiful Southern California. For more information please see our website. Thank you for your interest!
Did anyone receive a receipt from the school after sending in the primary?

Submitted primary Mon 2/26, secondary received yesterday 3/2.When did you guys submit your primary? I did last friday and didnt get a secondary
Does anyone know where to submit the application. All they gave us was a link to pay
Northstate did have the ability to give their 1st MD class the opportunity to access federal loans and chose not to do so. They had a pre-existing Pharm school which would have made this possible for both their MD and Pharm students.It’s because the school doesn’t have full accreditation yet because it’s new. Every new school goes brought this. I have a coworker who goes to Cal Northstate and she had to get private loans because there’s was no federal aid offered because it was a new school.
Just got the secondary. Dont think Ill be filling it out because of the lack of fin aid.
I sent mine in early, early Friday morning (as in, a little after midnight EST), and I received a secondary today.When did you send in the primary?

Won't be filling it out either. I have DO accepts... would much rather go DO than go without federal loans, for sure.

Perfect!For my payment confirmation I also sent in a copy of the paypal receipt email along with the secondary pdf, is that fine?
Is there an instate preference at this school?
In the unlikelihood a school did not receive full accreditation, the LCME works with other area medical schools to absorb the class. This happens with extreme rarity. The only time I know of this happening was when Oral Roberts University's SOM folded several years ago, which was, I believe, due to bankruptcy. The LCME now requires all medical schools to provide evidence of the "sustainability" of financial resources.Do HPSP scholarships apply to new schools like CUSM?
Also, say the school wasn't able to gain full accreditation, what would happen to the current students?

We are reviewing completed applications now. Invitations for on-campus interviews may go out as soon as tomorrow and will continue thereafter as applications are completed. I would anticipate on-campus interviews to begin in about two weeks. Thanks!When do interviews start and which day of the week will interviews be?
