"Qualifying for In-state tuition as an OOS applicant through gaining Ohio residence after 1st year seems more difficult than it should be. Ohio State seem to have a competitive vibe, despite having pass/fail grading. They require everyone to use MacBooks rather than letting every med student use their own laptop that they think works best for them." Report Response
"I wish I had adjusted my Zoom such that my video of myself was oriented close to the camera so that I could appear like I was looking at the camera for the virtual interview." Report Response
"It's a great program. There is lots of research happening at OSU, across the Basic Sciences to the Clinical Sciences. The placement of their med students in every year's match is also great for those interested in competitive specialties. A big turn-off for me about OSU was that for OOS students, it can be hard to qualify for in-state tuition through applying for Ohio residence after the 1st year, so if you're not an Ohio resident you're likely gonna get charged out-of-state tuition for at least the first year. OOS med students mention having to share excel budget spreadsheets specifically designed to document their expenses the way the office of the registrar wants to see it to qualify for in-state tuition, and their SGA is working on reducing the hurdles to qualifying for in-state tuition."
