Buying my own food and cooking (also so I do not get out of shape and because eating out costs a ton). Anyone is down to learn some recipes from me and I want to try to get some BBQ days for the class if possible. As for food costs, time to use my savings
We’re gonna meal prep cuz icoms got a nice kitchen to warm stuff up inBuying my own food and cooking (also so I do not get out of shape and because eating out costs a ton).

They do? If so let's do it!! Yes meal prep is key seeing that we can not afford to waste too much time cooking every day.
Yes absolutely
Decisions usually come out on Fridays. Don’t think it’ll be any different with WL as it has to do with when the adcom meets.
Yeah they do
For sure, especially since the waitlist ranking is out now
I actually prefer them. My interest rate is significantly lower than the federal rate (which will save me about 200k in the long haul). I went through Sallie Mae. Also, a ton of my classmates did the HPSP scholarship if that's something that you are interested in.
The way Im doing it is I have some money save to help supplement each month, my bf is helping with living expenses cause we r moving out together and then my parents said they would help supplement a couple hundred each month for the first year or 2. Other than that we will be living off of cup of noodles and pb and j's lol
Yes.i interviewed on 3/1 and got my waitlist ranking today. Pretty quick turnaround time.
Oh, I love this! I love checking into this page every once in a while and y'all's energy keeps me going here at school. Anyways, to be brutally honest with you guys, medical students are usually not known for their abundance of wealth during school........It is 100% possible to live on the amount that you are allowed in the COA. Yes, I realize, that there is not a specific "food" category (it's the room/board and personal expenses combined) but most COA's don't have a specific line for just food.
This is a lot more comforting, thank you so much!
That depends on how late into the cycle you are accepted. Early on in like Oct/Nov. then sometimes they will give you a month or so. If you are accepted right around now-ish its probably a 2 week deadline to submit the deposit. If you are accepted in like May or later, like right before school starts, they will most likely require an immediate deposit.
Thanks! Hoping the shorter deadlines now makes for faster movement for WL people like me
I was accepted today and have 2 weeks to put the deposit down
congrats!! were you on high tier waitlist?
yes, high tier!
Congrats welcome to the team fellow waitlister, doesn't it feel so good to get off that list?
Congratulations!!! I interviewed on the same day and was placed on the medium rank waitlist. Hoping to get accepted here!
Sorry for asking again, but was this the "high-priority" high tier?
it's ok, what they said was "highest tier of the high waitlist group"
What happened to the "buckets"?
Hey! No there wasn’t even an option to turn them on and you’re automatically muted as well. They did a raffle for mugs and T-shirts’ at the end of the session so stay for the whole program if you want a chance at free swag!
OOoh heck yeah, I'm attending tomorrow!
See you there, I would love a mug
My interview was very catered to my file and they asked specific questions about my degree and volunteering and it was more conversational than other interviews. I was asked some ethical questions but overall very easy going and honestly very pleasant.
lol catch me watching this in my pjs in bed
Same hahahah
I never really even got asked about my interests in ICOM. They mostly asked me if I really understood the sacrifices I was making and then Dr. Coffey asked me about my research and we chatted generally about quite a few things.
Nah, I'm just hyperaware of how little money we have haha. Most student docs tho have confirmed it's plenty.
Okay thats good to know.
I’m waiting for NHSC
Very low. There’s only a few rotation spots. The school says to not count on or expect it unless you went to high school at Boise.
There are about 40 spots in Boise/Meridian.
WOOO! Welcome!
Congrats! WL?
