I'm still deciding MD/Phd, but for now I am not. My husband is in law school at UIUC, and I'm really involved the College of Applied Health Sciences/Beckman Institute here as well. Staying in Urbana for all four years is what I personally wanted out of all the options. I cannot be 100% sure that the adcom read the letter I sent after I was waitlisted, but I wrote about my ties to the Urbana campus amongst other things. When I received the acceptance phone call, she said that there was a spot in Urbana for all for years if that's what I "still wanted", so I assume she knew I did have a preference. However, I never completed a site preference card or anything like that.
