Anyone out there? UCLA, DREW/UCLA or UCR/UCLA. Post here if you have q's and to get to know each other.
UCLAstudent said:Good luck, docinthemaking! I hope it goes well. Maybe I'll see you at second look weekend.
UCLAstudent said:docmemi, do you live in Weyburn Terrace? I called UCLA and asked about housing there, and the woman on the phone, Carrol, said she was "pretty sure" that all first-year medical students have a place reserved there. Do you know if this is true? I would like to live at either Weyburn or on Tiverton. Thanks for any advice!
UCLAstudent said:Thanks, docmemi! Do you know if it comes with a parking spot(Weyburn)? I know it's extra money, but is it guaranteed? BTW, I went down to the medical school today to hear a lecture on abortion at lunchtime. I felt like such a teenybopper!
UCLAstudent said:Thank you, Ambs! That is good news. You rock.
docmemi said:wow, i was at another talk. but thats cool you went.
yes, you get a parking spot in the complex and you can use it to park in the hospital or elsewhere on campus after 430pm or anytime on the weekend. you cannot get day parking on campus if you live in weyburn...you can just get weyburn parking. and yes, im pretty sure its extra money.
docmemi said:congrats.
hard choice between stanford and ucla.
obviously you should look at the curriculum, student life and hapiness, city and community (including expenses), opportunities (volunteer, research, etc). just whereever you would fit in. you should go to the 2nd look days obviously. ask me q's if you have any.
CreativeWriter said:thank you for the advice. i agree, they are both great places. did you go to the UCLA second look? how was it like? any other advice, is greatly welcomed!
