As a current research assistant in a building attached to the medical campus' admissions office building, I'm ready to start begging for an II lol

I feel that. Rent is over half of my research money. 😂

Maybe a question for future me lol, but how much is rent near the Ohio State medical campus? OOS student trying to save if possible.

I'm from Utah, so not the best reference. But I've been looking on Zillow and other sites and it looks pretty affordable. I have a puppy so I'm looking for a house with fenced yard and there's a decent amount of 2/3 bedroom houses around campus for $1500-$2000. In Salt Lake City it would be $2000 minimum.

I’m an undergrad at OSU right now and I pay about $500 per month for rent - 10 min walk from the med center in a 5 bedroom with my roommates. Rent ranges from like $400 (hefty walk) to $1000 for the fancy apartments

 

[premeddie19]

For accepted students, any idea what's in the package we're getting? I'm pretty excited lol

[Lifeblood_20]

I got a package with a card, some nice OSU laptop stickers and a syringe-shaped pen a while ago, if that's what you are referring to?

[ayeayeaye24]

Are they still sending interview invites? also thoughts on sending pre-interview update letters/do they accept them?

I just got an II!

 

[ayeayeaye24]

[BigSchmidtz]

[ayeayeaye24]

March 24th! idk if this is for everyone but the date was assigned to me, I didn't get to choose.

Congrats! When's your interview?

 

[Almosthere771]

Do I email if it's been 2 weeks and my LOR's have not been checked

 

[doctortimer]

Does anyone who’s been accepted know when they’re sending financial aid or scholarship information? Or know if they have given scholarships generously during past application cycles?

 

[rep_the_don]

Sent in a pre-II update/interest letter. No idea if this will move the needle at all but can't hurt!

 

[Laughsandmedicine]

II this morning!! OOS, I'm in shock and never expected this, especially this late in the cycle

Congrats! Did you send an update letter/letter of interest??

 

[ayeayeaye24]

Congrats! Did you send an update letter/letter of interest??

Hi! I submitted an update letter with news that I got furloughed from a position on my app (rip) and that I have pursued two new volunteering positions because of this. HOWEVER I sent this letter in early November so I'm not sure if it had any impact!!

 

[Cr.collins1]

II This morning! No letter of interest sent but Scheduled to interview for the 29th of this month!

 

[abcde1111]

I'm starting to lose hope on finessing that II feels like they might be wrapping up

Mmm...if you go through my post history then you'd probably figure me out pretty quickly. But that'd be a pretty Wicked thing to do.
