Hi all,
So I'm currently on the waitlist for Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions and it's looking like it may be my only remaining hope for this cycle. I liked the program when I visited but I'm wondering if anyone has had concerns about making an abrupt life style change when moving (for any program.)

I would also be moving with a SO. We're both currently loving where we are (Seattle) and in a good place with our jobs. Granted, im not accepted yet, but I'm worried I'll have to make a decision quickly if I am. Do you go to a school you're not sure of just because you got in or do you wait another year for one you're more excited about?
 
Personally, I believe that you should never settle for a school that you aren't too enthusiastic about.
Also, moving to another state is a big change.
Since you love where you are, I would stay and apply for the next cycle.
To me, there's nothing like the feeling of home and belonging. You could be leaving behind your friends and your support system when you move away.
You never know if you'll have that same feeling once you move to somewhere new.
If it were me, I would wait and apply for the next cycle to a school that I'm more excited about.
