Anyone know if UB is switching to P/F next year? Can't find anything on their website or frankly anywhere else but I'm fairly confident it was brought up during my interview day.

yes, P/F next year

[aceace453]

Has anyone who was recently accepted received the GradAdmit email yet? Just trying to get this deposit in.

 

[thissuckslol]

Is second look weekend for everyone or just URM?

Seriously? I wouldn’t imagine a medical school putting on a racial event lol

 

[Charlie1921]

Is there a facebook page yet?

 

[SpacebarPeds]

Has anyone who was recently accepted received the GradAdmit email yet? Just trying to get this deposit in.

I got an email around 1am just now from "[email protected]" with a one-time password but it's asking for my "UBITName and Person Number", which I don't have yet. Does anyone know if there's supposed to be another email?

Edit: Just received the second email from Dr Marshall with you login information for "GrAdMIT" around 6am. Should be all set now. Use that to login in to GrAdMIT and confirm the acceptance, then press the "Status" tab to find your UBIT Name and UB Person Number needed to pay the deposit.

 

[learningtolove35]

Is there a facebook page yet?

nope! anyone willing to make one?

 

[Charlie1921]

So I paid my deposit a while ago now but it still says “NA” on the gradadmit page next to “acceptance confirmed:” under the status tab.... anyone else?

 

[md2beprobably]

It comes in early June apparently, as per a current student.

For transcripts, where are you guys sending them? The office of admissions or elsewhere? It doesn't specify in the acceptance package.

Hey all. I'm in incoming M1 here and was looking to buy a new laptop. Really technologically challenged but need a new comp and am trying to save money. Will a macbook air suffice?

 

[thissuckslol]

[shark bait hoo ha ha]

Has anyone gotten financial aid info yet?

 

[SpacebarPeds]

Factoring in possibly streaming lectures, viewing histo slides, flashcards apps, note-taking or using for exams, any "newish" MBA would be more than fine. My significant other got by easily with a 2014 MacBook Air and my 2015 MacBook Pro is still going strong, which I plan to continue to use.
