are you planning on going to the second look weekend this year? i'mn definitely thinking about it, but i haven't decided yet. Did you get a lot out of it last year?
thanks for the tip, pomdemonium! btw, your icon is adorable.
I'm going to contact them and see if I can attend some of the events where attendance doesn't matter and/or other current students can attend. I was planning on making a trip out there to look for housing at that time, so it's no big deal--I'll be around anyway. I was planning on attending Second Look this year until the email said that space is limited. I don't want anyone to miss out, since I've already had my turn!
I loved Second Look last year--I enjoyed meeting current and prospective students, was really impressed with the warmth and dedication of the faculty we had the opportunity to meet, and had a great time at Doc Opera (not on the agenda this year). I also appreciated the curriculum overview, since there weren't many details on this when I interviewed. But there will be a thorough curriculum discussion at orientation, so if you already know you're going to Case, I wouldn't go to Second Look just for that. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Anyway, I hope I get to go and meet those of you that attend!
Hi Case/CCLCM peeps! I have an interview coming up in the next few weeks and was just wondering if there are any must see's in the Cleveland area. I'll be arriving on Saturday so I have a couple of extra days to see stuff outside of the long interview days. I was thinking the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Botanical Garden, and the Cleveland history museum since I'm a big anthro buff. Anything else that's maybe off the beaten track/not quite as touristy?
Thanks! Congrats to all of the new acceptees.
Who else is attending?
I don't remember his name, but I met a mudphud when I interviewed, and he was really nice and seemed to love it there.
I just wanted to say hi to my future classmates!! I haven't withdrawn my other applications yet (I'm having a hard time tearing myself away from Boston) but I'm 98% sure that I'll be joining you at Case.
I'm planning on going to second look weekend... is anyone flying in around 3 pm on Friday that wants to meet up and split a cab to the hotel??
I'm really excited to meet everyone! See you in March/July!
What happened to that last 2%?
I think it's all electronic this year--I got an email on 1/19/2007 with the subject line "The 2007-2008 Financial Aid Application Process." Here's the text of the email:
Congratulations on your acceptance to Case School of Medicine! The next step in the application process is to go to your iApply account, which has the links to complete all financial aid materials. We know the financial aid process can be stressful and confusing to new students, so we have included our Financial Aid Handbook website (http://casemed.case.edu/financial_aid/) which details your options, what to do, how to do it, and when to do it.
We know many medical school applicants do not make their final decision on which school they will attend until they receive an Award Letter from each school that they have been accepted to. As soon as we receive ALL of your COMPLETED information, we will send you an Award Letter from Case School of Medicine. Please be very careful in completing all the required documents. If your information is complete by March 31, you will receive an Award Letter no Later than May1, 2007.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call Jessie M. Clemmons or Wanda L. Rollins at (216) 368-3666 or e-mail us at [email protected].
Hope that helps!
You guys are totally organized with your list. But how are you going to recognize each other once you get here to Cleveland? Second look was really fun last year. I'm glad so many people will be coming. Congrats again to all of my fellow c/o 2011 people. 
Congrats!
They're paying for hotel (shared with another prospie) and meals (looks like all meals, if it's like last year).
