Hey everyone who knows me. I am in Morocco, Africa right now with my church doing some charity work. It is so exciting. I recommond to everyone starting this Fall to go out and travel a bit before we start. The weekend after I get back I am going on a four day cruise so hopefully I will be well rested before we start school. Ok, that's all. Goodbye from Africa. (That sounds so cool!)
Has anyone heard anything as far as financial aid, class schedule, etc.?
I put in for the reconsideration of income forms through the university and have yet to hear anything back. I had my financial aid done months ago, but I have no idea what I do with that amount lol! I guess we will hear something from the school ... ?
I've been wondering about the financial aid stuff, too. I faxed in all my University forms over a month ago and have yet to hear anything. I did submit a reconsideration of income form, and heard back that my EFC had been adjusted, but that's it. And even then, that's a total joke - my $36000 drop in income for this coming year only dropped my EFC by like $500. What the hell? Hopefully you have better luck with it!
I have a question about the Colorado internship license form:
What do I list as my "original date of enrollment"? Would I put August 17th, the first day of classes, do I list the date I got my acceptance letter?
Thanks!
Just got the email about CPR and AED certification... would have been nice if they listed this requirement in the acceptance letter three months ago.
Any idea on where I can go to get certified? I emailed the red cross but they don't offer a course that does Adult, Infant & Child CPR and AED... usually it's just Adult CPR and AED or Adult, infant and child CPR with no AED training. Really don't want to have to pay for two separate classes.
Yeah, I checked into the Red Cross classes, too, and ended up enrolling in an Adult CPR w/ AED and a Child/Infant CPR class. It's basically 2 4-hour classes instead of an 8 hour one. It it a bit more expensive b/c you have to pay for 2 classes instead of one, but that's really the only option I could find. There are a few other places I found that offer training in the Denver area, but none of them encompass all the stuff either. I agree it would have been nice to know earlier than this, but at least the Red Cross does tons of classes in the summertime, so finding one shouldn't be hard.

Did everyone get their immunization sheet signed off by your doctor? It is due June 1st. Also, don't forget to send the school two copies of your Spring transcripts.
I think my spring transcripts will be ready, but where do you send them?
the office of student services..?
I'm moving out at the end of July, but I wish I could get out there sooner!
It's gonna be a loooong drive...
Where are you coming from? Can you believe we are moving soon? I can not believe how fast this summer has gone. I am going up to Denver Thursday for the weekend to check out apartments! I am so excited! This will be the first time I will be able to actually check out Denver. At the interview I didn't stay long enough to experience it.
In-staters...any suggestions as to what to check out while I am there? Even restaurants and what not. Thanks. See you soon!!!
Depends do you want to live at 9th or the new campus? Still unsure on where we will be.
Just out of curiosity for the out-of-staters....When about are you planning on moving to CO? I am moving middle of July so that I can get to know the area a little better before school starts. Can't wait to meet all of you!!
Best of luck with the drive iheartchem. It's not too bad. I've driven from Boston to Denver. I'm guessing you're taking I-80?
Rxcrystal, 16th street mall is worth checking out. It's right in the middle of downtown. Plenty of food options down there. On Market and 16th there's Crocs (mexican) and Two-Fisted Mario's (pizza) which are both delicious. Near Union Station there is The Wynkoop which serves good pub food and they brew their own beers.
There's Pasquini's which is also pizza and Italian. I know there's one location on Broadway but there might be one closer to downtown.
You could always just drive down I-70 and take a peak at the mountains. In Idaho Springs there's a place called Beau Jo's that does pizza but they call it "mountain pie" and you eat it with honey.
Thanks for the encouragement! Yep, it's I-80 pretty much the whole way for me too. I can't believe you drove from Boston! Do you have any suggestions for interesting sites/places to stop in Iowa and Nebraska?
Btw, definitely agree with you on Beau Jo's-- I went to the mtns when I was out for the interview and stopped to eat there--it's delicious!

9th and Colorado offers free transportation to new campus.. it doesn't really matter where you live. equidistance is best i'm sure.
I would hope that the various schools will get together and figure out some sort of transportation for students when we move campuses, especially for you p1's since it will likely be in the middle of the semester. People in my class made it quite clear that they were really going to be screwing with people's transportation situations when they moved campuses.
Hmmm... if only the could comp us some of our tuition should this become one big ole clusterf***. I really feel sorry for the faculty who'll have to scuttle between the two campuses if they really do start us P1's at Anschutz and keep everyone else at 9th.
The only thing I am worried about is the parking pass. If I get a pass and its good for both campuses then I'll be cool. If they try to make me buy two different ones.......then I will have to drive to 9th and skateboard to fitz. Which will not work out so well in the winter. I looked at the website but it mainly talks about faculty parking. I guess its just the waiting game now.

Skateboarding down Colfax is probably something you absolutely do not want to do.
