    2011-2012 Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine at FAU Application Thread

    Hi guys! I'm an M2 (as of about 5 days ago....). Not sure what facebook page is set up for you guys, but we've set one up for admitted students for next year's class. We found it very useful to have last year when looking for housing and doing all of those gritty details. To get access, you can...

    2010-2011 Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine at FAU Application Thread

    OOS here, probably not going to relinquish my seat, even for cheaper in-state options. Call me crazy, but the fact that FAU has treated me like a human being makes me ready to give my spot on the waitlists of schools that ignored me for the better part of a year. Perhaps other OOSers are more...

    FIU vs FAU vs FSU

    Get on the FAU Class of 2015 Facebook group. For better or worse, it'll make you fall in love with the school and give up all hopes of attending a state school should you get off of the waitlist.

    financial aid question: top 20 school vs. top 5

    This is EXACTLY what I've been wondering as of late. How much has tuition increased at the UCs in the recent past and how much would it be expected to increase do we think?

    Tufts vs Jefferson vs FIU vs Wayne (in-state)

    Not necessarily. As someone facing ~$80,000 COA for the next four years, I've been doing some research into loan forgiveness options. The most promising, in my opinion, is the public service loan forgiveness option, in which loans are forgiven after 10 years of working in the public sector...

    Tufts vs Jefferson vs FIU vs Wayne (in-state)

    I'd also like to hear opinions on this. Fortunately my current choice is between a northeast private school that didn't particularly stand out to me vs Florida Atlantic, which completely has my heart. Perhaps it's something they put in the water at these new Florida schools? I'm debating...

    Please see my above comment about June weddings. With 54 in-state classmates to choose from, all of the out-of-staters should be covered.

    2010-2011 Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine at FAU Application Thread

    This is exactly how I feel. Still waiting to get off of state school waitlists, but I feel like FAU is such a cool opportunity and would even be beneficial for residency placement. It would be so much cooler to say "I STARTED such-and-such" as opposed to "I participated in such-and-such..." In...

    For out of staters: Any idea if there's hope for us for scholarship money? Related: Any in-staters interested in a June wedding?
