YEAY I'M SOOOOOOOOO HAPPYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

by the way, how do you decline an acceptance? i was accepted to lecom-b but will not attend? should i just not do anything and then after the deadline for the deposit they'll automatically drop me? thanks 🙂 god bless

Maybe you should call lecom and tell them you are declining your acceptance. This may be the nicest thing to do so that another can have the seat that you no longer will be taking. Congrats on getting in to your top choice school!!
 
Pack your shorts and flip flops - oh nevermind , NSU requires business attire 🙂 Congrats !!! Have fun these next few months (seriously) 👍
 
sweeeet...make sure to buy a bunch of cool scrubs...ive already planne to get longhorn scrubs (i go to UTexas)...i'll see u at orientation!!! or possibly before..where we can get a bunch of SDNers to go party before orientation 👍
 
🙂

yea we should have a get together sometime before the orientation.

by the way, for the dress code, what color do the scrubs have to be? what type of shoes can be worn with the scrubs? i cant find the paper that had that info. thanks 🙂 god bless
 
Regarding LECOM, you should email the director of admissions, thank him/her for the honor to be accepted and say that you've been accepted to your top choice (just to be in good terms with them just in case and give someone else a chance at your seat) 👍
 
from what i've heard..the scrubs can be any color...the student that took my interview group on the tour was wearing bright pink scrubs...and she said that one of her classmates sometimes wore camouflaged scrubs..as for shoes ...suppposedly tennis shoes are not allowed but everyone wears them..i think im going to wear tennis shoes for now..and if they specify differently during orientation i'll just buy them in florida...one less thing to pack i guess

EDIT: FYI the color of the osteo school scrubs are blue...and the school will send out order forms where you can order through them..they have the NSU and DO logo on them too if u are interested in that
 
Thank you all..

yea scrubs go perfectly with sneakers 🙂

See you in August!!!!!!!!
Also on my tour I heard that they want us to wear royal blue scrubs, but that it is not mandatory that we wear that color, I hate royal blue.

Congrads.

I write letters to the schools that I am decling. Just a basic letter saying they were one of your top choices but the decision was hard one and, as such, you are not taking their offer.
 
Congrats! That is my #1 choice school. My sister got accepted to Law school in Florida and will attend next fall, so hopefully i end up in florida too! Great job
 
I'll be attending NSUCOM c/o 2010! I'm from UF in Gainesville. See you there.
 
Hey guys I'm from New Orleans, LA and a recent LSU graduate! I was accepted to NSU class of 2010 a couple of months ago (woohoo!!) As someone mentioned earlier I think it would be a great idea to try and do something before orientation... Hope to see ya'll this fall!

Congratulations!! If I were you, i'd send them a letter in writing thanking them for the oppurunity and how you enjoyed your visit there, but you will be respectfull declining their offer. It's always good to be polite and professional, because its a small world out there!!

PS- I apologize if you find this offensive or innapropriate, but would you mind telling us ur stats, I'm trying to get an idea what NSU is looking for.
 
Congratulations!
Can you tell me how you compared the two schools and why NSUCOM?
Yes, a phone call or note to decline LECOM's offer sounds appropriate.

Supposedly next year they are going to start requiring requiring all medical students to wear royal blue scrubs. Have fun with that.
 
Well, LEcom-b is strictly PBL. also, it's in bradenton.
NSU has a more established program in my opinion, more opportunities for clinical rotations (LECOM-B still doesn't have too many associated hospitals from what I understood) . Also, i live down here in south florida with my family and husband and would love to stay here. That's why i chose NSU 🙂 so happy!

ALso, LECOM-B does not take the Health service corps scholarship because it's a new school or something.
 
pink scrubs@! cool! also, spongebob scrubs would be super duper cool!!!!!

oops i still have to send in my deposit 🙂
 
HEY ALL:

I got the acceptance packet from NSU and they want official AP scores? do i have to call the college board or just tell my school to send in a transcript reflecting the scores? Thanks 🙂
 
AP scores? That's interesting... I didn't have to submit those. AP as in advanced placement scores from high school - or is it something else? You could probably have your college send those in for you but I'm not sure. You may want to call NSU and ask them. Linda Ferris is pretty helpful - she or Delia Celeste or probably the best people to ask. And congrats by the way for your acceptance - I look forward to seeing you in class in the fall!
 
i hope they arent actually expecting AP transcripts.. those are from like five years back haha. anyways, i heard from another schools admissions office that an official transcript will satisfy that requirement as long as your transcript clearly delineates the credit youve received (towards your college) from the AP exams
 
oh ok thank god 🙂 cause i don't feel like calling the college board and slashing out all that $ for an AP transcript

Ggrrrr.... They're going to have to beat me with a stick to get this to happen. I like my pretty teal, lime, black, etc scrubs. Actually, I just don't want to buy new ones.

hi! um, i was just curious - how do you like Fort Lauderdale? i didn't get too much of a chance to look around the area... you can PM me, if you prefer! 😀

Fort Lauderdale has IT ALL....

-beach (amazing!)
-nightlife (Las Olas Riverfront, Hard Rock Casino/Clubs)
-arts (Art Museum currently showing an amazing King Tut exhibit, Broward Center for Performing Arts..."Wicked" comes here next month!)
-gambling (if you're into that...at Hard Rock Casino)
-shopping (upscale Galleria Mall, Las Olas boutique shops, Sawgrass Mills world's largest outlet mall)
-weather (its January and it was 81 and sunny today 🙂 )

And if that's not enough for you....all the star-studded glitz and glamour of South Beach is about 20 minutes away.... 😎

Pegasus listed all great aspects...I LOVE it in Ft. Lauderdale. I currently attend UCF in Orlando (getting away sounded great when I was 18 🙄 ). Now I can't wait to go back home...To be honest, there are times that boredom will really get to you, but then med school will probably kick that out of you

haha, thanks, pegasus and kutiecg! :laugh:
 
From my tour I heard that there is a week of partying prior to orientation or during it. I think that would be great time to meet people. Im from OK so Ill be new in the area and I think it would be nice to meet people before orientation. Im moving down to Ft. Lauderdale July 1st to get my partying out and get more acclemated to the city.
 
I think you are talking about osteoblast..its a party hosted by the M2's and its like a nite of fun and drinks..there's even a tug of war for M1 against M2's..i think its held during the week of orientation tho..SDNers will prolly meet up before then 👍
 
hey do any of you know when the new athletic center will be complete? just wondering.
 
I NEED help, does this # look familiar? 727 569 1515 I missed this call earlier and I think its a florida area code, now I'm freaking out. :scared:

St. Petersburg , Fl
 
Do any of you know anyone currently at NSU and if so how do they like it? How do they deal with the CONSTANT studying with a test every week. It seems like there is no break. I have spoken with a few administrators there and a director for rotations and every one of them was very rude to me. They just cut me off and wasn't really interested in what I was saying. Is this the case for most of the staff. I have been hearing that the staff is, for the most part, unresponsive to student concerns or requests. Can anyone out there please help? I'm a little nervous. Thanks
 
Hey all:

we should meet up sometime in July yea. I am willing to help plan the event. Just tell me what kind of place you guys want to meet at (park for bbq, beach, dancing place,bowling,las olas, or whatever. See u all, god bless 🙂


Isudoc, i've spoken to lots of NSU students personally and they all seem to like the school very much. That's one of the reasons why i was so attracted to their program.

I was told they are changing to a required color for DO students. Royal blue. Looks like I'll have to get all new scrubs 🙁 . But who cares I like the school.
 
Congratulate all that got into NSU.
I have a question, how did NSU inform you about the decision? was it over the phone? email? snail mail? I believe the committee met today (wednesday) and so they should have made the decision for the recent interviewees.

thanks!
 
It was by phone. We were told that Weds. they meet. Thursday the dean signs and that our group would hear on Monday.

Hey I also got both of those acceptances. I plan to just write them and decline their offer. Good luck with everything, Class of 2010 here we come

They called me at 7 am, and then two three days later the letter was dropped off and I had to sign for it.
