UIC just assigned me to ...

What types of criteria do they look if you are making a case for chicago after being assigned to UIUC?

I'm out of state and my wife has a job waiting in chicago. Since I'll be financially dependent on her during med school I'm hoping they understand the necessity of chicago. And hers is not a job obtained in a smaller town like urbana.

Talk to the G man, Girotti. That is definetly the type of situation that they make concessions for. Good luck

No flamethrowing intended here. Thanks for your input, honestly. I in no way was trying to push Rockford onto anyone. I am not trying to bash Chicago in any way, either. I only wanted to point out that there are other campuses aside from Chicago's that may work out well for people if they are willing to keep their minds open and truly consider them for their possiblities.

Late response to the thread but check out Rockford's match list. The past two years they have sent 5 and 4 students to Mayo. Guess those faculty are o.k.

P.S. - I'm one of the 5 and I was heavily recruited into residency
