I think one think I am learning as I am starting the M4 grind is that it is the person not the program that makes the match. The program you attended can only get you so far if you aren't doing your best to get yourself there.
Is there a list? I tried to find it because i'm curious 🙂
MSAR: $202,953, but remember that this number also includes people who don’t take out any loans, and therefore have zero debt.
Oh my God. That is a scary number. The fact that no-debt students are also included makes this number very high for a degree cost. When do they send scholarship info?
keep in mind, "73% of students graduate with debt. And while that percentage has decreased in the last few years, those who do borrow for medical school face big loans: the median debt was $200,000 in 2019. The average four-year cost for public school students is $250,222. For private school students, the cost is $330,180."
More importantly, Wake students do really well in residency. I went to wake, and am in residency at a place where there are probably 10-15 residents across the board from wake, and attendings and other residents have all commented how prepared the wake students are.
I'm just going to wear a nice shirt...
When is second look?
today, tomorrow, Wednesday. 6-9 pm est
Very exciting!
They're currently planning to take their first cohort for the Charlotte Campus in 2024 (Class of 2028). For now, the Class of 2023, 2024, 2025, and likely 2026 can do their clinical rotations in Charlotte or Winston-Salem. The Class of 2024 will be sending a cohort of 36 students there for the year but anyone can do rotations there during M4
Thanks for the extra details. This article just said they were breaking ground on the project so I assumed it would be a while before they were ready, it’s great to hear the more definite plans for how they will bring in the second location.
The class of 2023 (M3 right now) is currently able to do rotations in Charlotte. Can’t do all of them there though, have to do at least one in Winston
Can I ask how you turned around so many secondaries? and in what average time frame? Did you rewrite anything? I'm stressing about the 2021-2022 cycle already.
they said mid april!
Trickle out or big drop at once?
all at once!
The school says April 30th, but it has moved sooner in the past.
At second look they said they do not rank their students pre-clinically.
Only third and fourth year grades are on a fail, pass, high pass, and honors system, but you are not being measured against your classmates. If you meet the specific thresholds for honors, then you earn honors regardless of how your peers do.
It would be nice for schools that have not released the financial aid packages , to do so today! Give us time to think things over in the next 2 weeks🙂
I know right!!!! I flubbed up on the scholarship app and therefore could not get any need-based scholarships. So if I don't get this HPSP I'd have to go entirely on loans for the first year and I don't know if I can stomach that! As much as I've been falling in love with the school and the class! 😢😢😢😢
Yeah, about second look? I think they sent that to everyone on the waitlist
Yes, makes sense. Sorry you are in such position, but I am sure you will figure something out.
One of my friends on the WL got that email. Not sure if everyone got it or not. How are the WL ranked anyways?
The WL is unranked. I am really not sure how they decide who to pull off the WL. Maybe they draw straws
I think it will start soon, certainly by April 30th. Good luck!!
let's hope so idk if i can make it through another couple weeks of waiting yo
Yes, that is tough. I'm sorry. Hang in there.
