Any of you Rush acceptees just get that very nice letter saying why you should go there? They also mentioned something about half the students getting 50 grand in grants. What's the info on this?

 

[PeterUbers]

Actually about 30-40 students from the M1 class (who applies) can submit research proposals for their M1 summer. They are eligible to receive a $2500.00 grant from RUSH for their research that summer. I don't know where they got the "1/2 of the class" info.. 1/2 of the class would be 60-65 people.

I never got that letter when I was accepted. It seems like RUSH is really trying to "recruit" their acceptees much more so than in the past few years. The average exam grades are going up, nonetheless, so it's not b/c RUSH is accepting less intelligent or less motivated people.

RUSH has huge specialty programs in surgery and medicine, I don't know why RUSH has to "sell" themselves,... i think the school sells itself.

I'll be there too. Do we have the latest start date or what (sept 13)? im excited to start school, but its also kinds nice to have such a long break before it all begins. Has anyone received any other info after they sent in there deposit + letter of intent?

 

[gointamedschool]

i'm accepted, my letter of acceptance is sent, my deposit is received.... and i'm psyched!

i'm a little behind on the financial aid forms.. but that's not a huge deal... they'll get done soon enough.

when's orientation begin? like sept 4th or something? the countdown begins!

I don't know much about how research works in med. school so some enlightment would be appreciated. Does this have to be an independent research or conducted with faculty? How soon should it be presenedd for evaluation? Thanks guy.

I don't know about 2003, but 2004 match was posted in a previous thread. I would give you the link if I could only figure out how.

I live off campus and it costs $42/month to park in the garage that is connected to the hospital. I think it costs around $20/month to park in the Ogden/Wood lot that is just a couple blocks away.
