Can someone who was accepted 2 weeks ago tell me if the deadline date on the offer letter is the same deadline date on their merlin account?
 
Do we have to wait until we get the letter in the mail to know what campus they assigned us to?

That's what I'm wondering! There was a part in the email that said they would try their best to honor campus preferences but it never stated the campus haha
 
I still haven't heard or gotten anything to get an interview?! What does this mean? HELP!

Hey guys! I actually won't be accepting the offer because I already have accepted my top choice. Good luck to those still interviewing 🙂
 
Can anyone give me a realistic cost of attendance?
Such as:
Tuition
books
housing/living expenses
and anything else you can think of
 
Tuition for 2 semesters was 15,700 and some change. No one buys books, and if they do, they're cheap used ones, usually from other students. As far as living, it depends on the campus. I am in Amarillo with a roommate, and rent is $427.50/per person/ month. We live at one of the nicer/closer places though.

Does 15,700 cover tuition only or does it include any extra fees?

I'm actually still a P1, so I'm planning to work as an intern this summer.

Typical day? First semester get up, get to biochem a little before 8, we had 2 classes, a 40 minute break, 2 more classes, then either done for the day or go to labs 2-3 days per week depending on what lab days you picked. Ideally you'd study every evening to keep the material fresh, but I would usually study the night before.

Second semester we have 8am lab 1 day a week, all other days we start at 10:30 (11 on Fridays). 2 classes, 40 minute break, 2-3 more classes, if you have A&P then you're done a little after 4. I'm making a point to study more in advance this semester.

For those who received the letter on March 2, does the the deadline date on the actual letter say March 6?

Mine was but I emailed Mike and he said that it just had to be postmarked by that date and he also let me scan the letter and email him! There's probably delays due to weather b/c my letter was postmarked for February 26th and I just received it yesterday!
