just withdrew a few days ago, so hope the spot goes to one of you guys!
has anyone seen a match list for jeff this year?
Hey,
Do you guys know when orientation is? I haven't been accepted yet, but I'm planning a trip this summer and I don't want to miss out on the possibility.
Thanks! Hope to be seeing you all this fall.
No suit for me. I'm wearing what I'd wear to work (blouse & slacks/skirt), on the advice of a friend (fellow med student.)I was wondering how formal everyone is dressing for Second Look. Suits and all or just a professional casual wear?
Has anyone received their financial aid award package yet? I am not sure whether I am late in receiving it or if they are still working on all of them.
Thanks.
thanks for posting your typical day, it helps a ton.
edit: so is there a consensus on which loan company to take? I still haven't chosen one. It seems as if all of them are pretty similar in that they charge the same interest rate, but am I overlooking something?
I was thinking the exact same thing! how do you choose your loan company??
Has anyone received the list of student hosts for second look yet? I think it's weird I haven't gotten it yet. Also, is anyone staying over in Philadelphia Friday night as well? I want to go to the bars with the medical frats but I don't want to drive 4 hours home 1) drunk, and 2) at 2 in the morning.

Hey all....
Got this on email a few days ago...hope it helps. (att.) Thanks all the Jeffersonians for all your help. I was considering living on campus but might start looking for other options.
Also, an aside, I think I'm speaking for all of us newbies when I say thanks to people like you Jefferson2011 and all of the rest who are helping to answer our questions and get an idea of what to expect. Y'all rock!
Any news, Plauto?
yep, just got off the phone with them. Here's the scoop:
No reason to rush to get the MPN done. As long as all the other paperwork is filed you'll have your fin aid package on time. In fact, they recommended I wait until May. Jefferson is adding Chase to their preferred lenders list due to THE dropping out. Chase is starting a new program for med students (http://www.chasestudentloans.com/medical/index_chep.html)and the details are not going to be fully worked out until May. For those of you who haven't looket at it yet, there is a healthy discussion going on in the fin aid forum about lenders. Chase seems to offer the best deal at the moment. However, I am trying to find out whether in the future they can retroactively get rid of the benefits they are offering now. At least 0% origination and deafult fees are immediate benefits that can't be taken away later on (that is, for a previous year!).
I know it's tough, but wait it out before signing the MPN and choosing your lender. With THE dropping (THANKS), I think Chase is getting picked up. However, all of the "bonuses" they offer are limited in that they can throw them away at any time.
I'll probably go down to Finaid sometime this week and ask about how the direct lending program is going.

And also does anyone know when classes actually start? I need to fill out that part on my housing application lol
Can someone tell me what time the revisit events start on Friday? I was planning to come down on Thursday for the reception but work has gotten in the way (boo...) and I sent back the invitation w/o making a copy of the schedule. Thanks in advance
does anyone have an address for the accepted students day on april 25th? i lost the letter they sent us
4/24 5-7PM Hamilton Building, 1001 Walnut st
4/25 8.30 AM Bluemle life sciences building Room 101, 233 south 10th st.
The Hamilton Building is actually on Locust Street (still 1001) as it says on the inside of the card. I got here a day early and was surprised to find that the card says two different things...
So some people are going to start out at the wrong place??
anyone get accepted off the waitlist lately?
What's with the "You won't believe this!!!!"? Is that a positive or negative declaration?
I having been checking this thread fairly frequently to see if anyone has posted any new information about Jeff waitlist movement. Has anyone out there either been accepted off the waitlist recently or been in contact with the school and gained any useful information?
just wondering where everyone is.
Couple questions:
1. Does anyone know of any row houses near the school that they'd recommend? I'm looking for a 1 bedroom, preferably walking distance to the school (but open to other options as well).
2. Has anyone been able to open up the academic calendar for the year? Every time I try and open it i get an error...
Thanks!
