So in moving from the west coast to the east coast for medical school....is it way too expensive to ship stuff or are people just starting over with new goodies?

-load up both your check-in luggages to the max. of 60-70 lbs (depending on airline). Stuff your carry-on backpack with more stuff.
-Have each person coming from home for the white coat ceremony lug more stuff.
-Bring what ever non-essentials are left when you go home for Thanksgiving or Christmas.
-search dumpsters by local apt. complexes for furniture
-buy whatever else you need at a thrift store
I'm planning on doing the first 3, and am considering the last 2.
