Same! I’m OOS so maybe that’s why?Was it only on SURF? Mine is empty, and no e-mail...
Oh, that's very strange; I wonder why it'd be different. I realized the tuition itself is only listed as being $37,810, like you said, but it's crazy to me that their other estimated costs are higher than even those for NYC schools I'm considering... That's why I was confused.huh? I'm IS and my COA is listed as 79k with tuition being like 37k
Keep in mind that some schools overestimate those other living expenses in order to help people who are paying for everything with loans (since you can only take out loans for the COA). Other schools try to keep the COA number as low as possible. They put 1.4k for books but at second look day everyone said they only bought like 1 book. So I don’t put too much weight behind all those numbersOh, that's very strange; I wonder why it'd be different.

Us out of staters are more in the $110,000 rangeI'm classified as in-state but SURF listed my COA as $71,688. Isn't this the price for OOS?
wow, that's crazy to me! Anyway, I withdrew today and I wish everyone on the waitlist the best of luckUs out of staters are more in the $110,000 range
a grant is by definition not a loan. So the Grant amount is free money they are giving you. It is likely need based unless you were notified that you received a recruitment scholarship (merit based). The reason it is already accepted if because no one would deny free money.Looking at the SURF's offer, there are several categories - MD/Federal Direct Loan, MD/Federal Direct Grad PLUS, both awards say offered. I also see a category MD/University Grant Category with an award amount already accepted - what is this? Is this a loan or award, (and if it is, is it merit or need based?)
I didn’t get any info on Saturday, but I looked just now and it’s up.Anyone else not get any financial aid info on Saturday like they said we would? Not seeing anything in surfs
Still not seeing anything What about you?Anyone else not get any financial aid info on Saturday like they said we would? Not seeing anything in surfs
What did you do to fix this issue?Just called — they might not have uploaded your FAFSA yet. There was some glitch or edit made to mine preventing it from being processed even though I completed it in the fall. Definitely call and check up if you don’t see an award yet!
Same thing happened to me and I just gave them a call and they said they would took care of it. However, I won’t receive my package until early next week ughWhat did you do to fix this issue?
What number did you guys call?Same thing happened to me and I just gave them a call and they said they would took care of it. However, I won’t receive my package until early next week ugh
The office of financial aid. 4107067347What number did you guys call?
Best to you too!Will be withdrawing my acceptance here. Good luck everyone!
Does anyone know how long the waitlist here is and if they have a separate IS and OOS waitlist? I'm getting antsy as we approach May
any idea when they are going to send out the waitlist ranking email?On MSAR, it says they accepted 10 applicants off a 100 person waitlist. Not sure if it would be any different this year with the traffic rules.
I’ll be honest you - from what I know, no, you can’t expect to get the grant each year of medical school. This year, I lost mine and so did my friends, not sure if it’s reserved for first years or what. Not sure if it’s need or merit based.If I was given an MD/University Grant for the 2019-2020 Academic Year, can I expect to get this same amount for each year of medical school? Also does anyone know if it's merit or need based?

+1 would lose my mind if i got in off the WL hereMeee. Out of state, waitlisted way back in October. I loved my interview day and would be ecstatic to attend
they havent even sent out the WL rankings yet?? what the fuq?? md be better plsaccepted off the WL this morning, IS, interviewed mid-march.
telling us rankings means they'll tell us what HALF we're in of 259 people?? also "The class is currently over-subscribed and it is unlikely that many positions will become available" sounds FALSE???
oh i just meant the over-subscribed part as someone reported being accepted off of the waitlist. either that or they're being optimistic about how many people will end up declining.Judging from the past MSAR information, that's accurate. They report taking about 10 students off the waitlist each year.

Right? Because someone was accepted yesterday from the WL... why would they accept somebody yesterday if the class is over-subscribed in May? Seems sketchytelling us rankings means they'll tell us what HALF we're in of 259 people?? also "The class is currently over-subscribed and it is unlikely that many positions will become available" sounds FALSE???
Withdrew from the WL. Hurt so bad when it happened back in the fall. Wish I could go back and tell myself that everything was gonna work out for the best. Good luck everyone!
