NYCOM Class of 2012

one thing to consider too is getting your loans all under one house. that way, you don't have two different companies for your stafford and grad plus loans, and down the road this can make it easier when setting up payment options or consolidating.

That's true, thanks. Did you get both in one place? If so, where?
 
For those of you that aren't on facebook.... My landlords are still looking to fill their apartment. They really want incoming 1st years, because they'd like people who will probably stay for 2 years. (it's only a 1 year lease, so if you choose not to stay, you don't have to, but it's nice).

Here is the ad. If you are interested, pm me for the #. Give me time to respond, because I am studying for boards and I'm trying to be good about limiting my online time.

Hi there, I was just curious to know how you found out about the picnic? Last I heard from NYCOM's admin was some financial aid info about a month ago, but nothing on picnics, start dates, nada!
 
The picnic is not an official NYCOM organized event. It is an unofficial event that is being organized by a few classmates via our 2012 facebook group. See my signature for more details.
 
Has anyone heard anything from the DPC program?

If you are taking all loans, don't worry about the bill. They keep sending a couple of them every month.

Yeah I got another one too and I remember reading that we'll be getting the bill a lot all summer.

But has anyone not yet received their financial aid package? I sent in my forms and they stopped sending me those notices that they're waiting for them, but it's been a while and I still don't know how much they're offering me... so I can't yet fill out the MPN because I can't choose a lender...

Still have one open room in a 3 br house. Right on Rt 107, very close to NYCOM. Two first years and one second year so far, all male. Rent is $550/mo + utilities. Call: 631.428.6701
 
Hey everyone,

I will also be joining the class of 2012, but to cut to the chase. I found a place to live, 8-min. drive from nycom, 5-bedroom house, with a fenced in backyard with pool. $675 including utilities for the room, its an awesome house. The catch: I found this place thru a contact, and spoke with the residents which will be 3 girls (didnt know this until I showed up to look at house) that will be taking the upstairs rooms. I spoke to them about living there, and they were looking for 2 guys that got along to live in the bottomw floor. I am meeting them this weekend (Sun.) so if someone wants to get on this asap call me at 914-466-9472, or email me at [email protected]. Even if you want to just call for more details. My phone is on the all the time and I don't sleep so call anytime.

Do any of you know if we need a specific type and color of scrubs and is anyone gonna live in or close to saint albans queens? What's the commute like? I don't know if any of u know but it can't help to ask, I live in Jerz.🙂
 
ItzaMiracle said:
Just asking cuz I know NYCOM is pretty formal.
Click to expand...

NYCOM isn't formal at all. You could wear pajamas to school if you want. As for scrubs, you can wear any color in the anatomy lab, and in OMM you just can't wear pants with snaps or zippers (cuz they ruin the tables), but most of the time no one cares anyway.
 
Ok thanks, my moms a nurse and she found some on sale so, I guess I'll be getting them. Its so hard to find long enough scrubs for me LOL.👎
 
Hi, recently joined and read the above lol. from Queens, NY. will be living with family. Soon to get a car.
was just wondering, How soon do we need to buy all this stuff? (the scrubs n books...😕)
and another thing, is a laptop to campus a requirement? (im more of a book person)
 
Hey, calm down! From what I've been reading, it looks like we shouldn't really worry about that stuff just yet. Apparently most people do this stuff during orientation or when we talk to our Big Brothers/Sisters, which happens at orientation or soon after that? Does that sound about right to anyone else?

Yeah that's what I've been hearing from a lot of people.

Take a vacation and soak up some sun! (but not UVA/UVB rays :laugh:)

For people that's keeping track of the stafford loans, mine got approved five days ago (both unsubsidized and subsidized) and it looks like the disbursement date is up to NYCOM's wishing but it did indicate the 18th of August.
 
I have already applied for the Stafford loan, via NYCOM, in order to cover my tuition expenses. However, I'm also going to need more money for my apt., food, etc. Is this where the GRAD Plus loan comes into play?....If so, does anyone have any recommendations of who to go through?

have anyone's loans still not been approved? i haven't heard anything by mail and the website to check loan status is still showing 0.00 and pending certification or whatever.
 
August 18th??? but the bill is to be paid by Aug 1st. How is this done, do they deduct this automatically?

I actually have two "loans" that is being displayed in my account. One had to do with the stafford loan amounting to ~43k and has been approved. The other has that pending certification thing that you mentioned with 0.00 as the amount.

Yeah I'm a tiny bit confused about this too, but I think NYCOM is aware of our approved/pending loan and that the August 1st deadline is irrelevant. I've heard from some 2nd year students to not worry about it at all and that the approved amount of money will automatically deduct from our bill.

I was fortunate enough to have my parents pay for my rent/utilities. I'm paying for groceries, gas, and other amenities using the money I'm earning from my summer internship. If you don't have any of those, then yes, GRAD Plus loans come into play or you can try some private loans albeit higher interest rates. The interest rate of a GRAD Plus loan is fixed at 8.5%. Good luck! 🙂

dont worry so much about all that stuff - dont buy books until u talk to second years (that would be me). scrubs - ull need them ur first week, but dont worry - if u live in queens u can buy nearby (thats what i did). about the laptop - its very helpful to have one, but i know not everyone has one. lectures are all streamed and even the best note takers miss things in class sometimes and want to check it up on the stream. but for that, a desktop at home would suffice.

Yes you need grad plus, and, not to scare you, but you're REALLY LATE for applying. It doesn't matter what lender, just pick one and apply ASAP. You'll get the money no matter what, but most people are going to get it right away (NYCOM has up to 2 weeks from your starting day to cut the checks), and if you don't apply and get approved, yours won't come until later.
 
just got the loan approval letter.
so now what, wait for the orientation? I am really bored

you will be praying to gods you don't even worship for the free time you have at your disposal today. don't waste it. enjoy yourself (whatever that means to you) and be able to look back on this summer and be thankful. your time and responsibilities are inversely proportional from here forward.
